She's at the shoe store... Wasting my green
Cashflow has just dried up while there's holes in my briefs
She fills up her drawers... Like she's a queen
Brand name clothes have made me lean
Can't stand this girl... Who makes me broke to buy new pairs
Now her closet's a surplus
With more pumps she snares
She'll hit the shoe store... To dump my green
Account's low thanks to Christine
She'll wear pearls... While I'm wearing Goodwill pants
She's a pain in my ass
The bank won't stand a chance
Won't leave the shoe store... Till I eat beans
Blew my bucks on makeup then she'll rinse and repeat
Bought out the shoe store... And heard me scream
Her new nose just got me reamed
Plucked each cent: My wallet's shrinking as her groom
In her clutch's my money: Uggs litter the whole room
Back at the shoe store... Boots in her reach
Wish I never hooked up with this attractive leech
I'll bomb that shoe store... With T.N.T.
Cardboard box just sprung a leak
Cashflow has just dried up while there's holes in my briefs
She fills up her drawers... Like she's a queen
Brand name clothes have made me lean
Can't stand this girl... Who makes me broke to buy new pairs
Now her closet's a surplus
With more pumps she snares
She'll hit the shoe store... To dump my green
Account's low thanks to Christine
She'll wear pearls... While I'm wearing Goodwill pants
She's a pain in my ass
The bank won't stand a chance
Won't leave the shoe store... Till I eat beans
Blew my bucks on makeup then she'll rinse and repeat
Bought out the shoe store... And heard me scream
Her new nose just got me reamed
Plucked each cent: My wallet's shrinking as her groom
In her clutch's my money: Uggs litter the whole room
Back at the shoe store... Boots in her reach
Wish I never hooked up with this attractive leech
I'll bomb that shoe store... With T.N.T.
Cardboard box just sprung a leak

Would Christine happen to be the daughter of Imelda Marcos? (kids, ask your parents if you don't know who I'm referring to...)
When you announced the title I kinda jumped to the conclusion that "Because he knows there's no such thing" would be repeatedly replaced by "Because she's buying everything", but this got varied all the way to the end. Can't go wrong with a parody about women (or runners, or female runners) loving to shop for shoes.
