Everybody's going for those kinky boots, kinky boots,
(boop, boop)
Kinky boots,
It's a manly kind of fashion that you borrowed from the brutes,
Borrowed from the brutes,
(boop, boop)
Kinky boots.
Fashion magazines say wear 'em,
And you rush to obey like the women in a harem.
Full length, half length,
Fully fashion calf length,
Brown boots, black boots,
Patent leather jackboots,
Low boots, high boots,
Lovely lanky thigh boot,
We all dig those boots.
Everybody's crazy for those kinky boots, kinky boots,
(boop, boop)
Kinky boots,
And whether you're in evening dress or bathing suits,
You wear boots, boots, kinky boots.
There are twenty million women wearing kinky boots, kinky boots,
Puss in boots,
Footwear manufacturers are gathering the fruits,
Gathering the fruits,
(boop, boop)
Kinky boots.
Advertising men say try 'em,
And you all run amok like a flock of sheep to buy 'em.
Sweet girls, street girls,
Grumpy little beat girls,
Square girls, cool girls,
Sexy little schoolgirls,
Maiden aunties,
Mayfair debutantes,
They all dig those boots.
Everybody's rushin' for those Russian boots,
Prussian boots,
(boop, boop)
Kinky boots,
Cover up those slender little tender foots with kinky slinky,
Leather is so kinky,
Come and get those kinky boots, boots, kinky boots.

The record sounds as though they were forced to make it, at bayonet point."The Cathy Gale-era of the show spawned a novelty record called "Kinky Boots," performed by Patrick Macnee and Honor Blackman. Patrick was so petrified about singing (or, in particular, being unable to sing) that after several failed takes, he was escorted to a local pub, lubricated with brandy, and returned to the recording studio. Even after that, a sound engineer had to stand next to him and tap him on the shoulder whenever he was supposed to sing."

ten years pass...
two years pass...
Not on the soundtrack to Kinky Boots the film or featured in the musical, confusingly.
NB not seen either, in fact the film passed me by but have recently seen countless ads for the musical on London Underground escalators, as you do.
