Description
brown shoes
by woofer3
A song about Reginald John Christie of 10, Rillington Place fame -written about 1992 though this recording made in June 2006- recorded partly on Cubase3.7 and partly on Cubase sx - The song says be sure of people before you trust them .
I tried to get a Jerry Lee Lewis type of Sun piano sound on this.
I feel as though I should also mention that apart from the six women he killed Christie also murdered a toddler named Geraldine Evans and as a result of all this an innocent man [Timothy Evans] was executed. Evans was later given a pardon - a bit late maybe. All because of a police cover up. They made witnesses change their statements to fit with their treachery. Same as the Bently case. This is my one big argument against hanging but my only one.
Christie was hanged by Albert Pierrpoint on 15th.July 1953 .
I must mention my granddaughter Danielle who helped me with the vocal chorus on this piece and so I'd like to say a big thank you to her.

Lyrics
brown shoes by woofer3
Verse 1.
Looking so respectable in clerical grey-
He's the one you would never suspect.
The Nottinghill killer is out for the day-
So you'd better show a healthy respect,
Chorus
He wears brown shoes, black tie-
Sharp crease, steps high,
He could never be a meanie-
Must have been an Ovalteenie.
Brown shoes make it, brown shoes make it.
Brown shoes make it, brown shoes make it.
verse 2.
He's a gasser that's a fact, Mr.Reginald John-
He don't wanna be a killer but his marbles are gone,
He's got a problem with Ethel,cos she knows what he's done.
Tho he always tries to tell her it was only in fun,
Repeat Chorus
Break as verse
Repeat Chorus.
verse 3.
Ruth,Muriel,Ethel,Rita,Kathleen and Hectorina,
All had been part of the plan,
He took them back to number 10, they were never seen again-
Ans nobody much gave a damn.
Chorus.
