‘Heels’ was written/produced/performed by Nathaniel Banks. He references the Wizard of Oz when he talks about ‘clicking heels’ and ‘good witches’ and ‘what would you do with a brain if you had one’ etc which gives a nostalgic/ reminiscent vibe.

[Verse 1]
Well look at these circles
Haven't slept in weeks
And I tried to count
But I'm afraid of sheep
And if I only had the nerve I'd be a Bonaparte
Walking over anybody with an open heart
Don't look over there behind the shower curtain
The more I think about it now
The less I'm certain
Which is the good witch is really the bad one?
What would you do with a brain if you had one?
[Chorus]
Overcoat boys
Undercut blues
An arm and a leg
For a couple tattoos
Ruddy red cheeks
Started off strong
If your folks don't freak
Then you're doing it wrong
You've got this far
'Cause your backyard
Wasn't quite cutting it
But if it gets dark
And if it gets real
You can click your heels
[Verse 2]
Don't you people know better than to bow the knee
He's an amateur behind a curtain just like me
And don't you think silver's as good as gold
I saw it all when I was nine years old
Told you he was only writing for the kids
Now the author's dead so quit asking him
About which is the good witch
Is really the bad one
What would you do with a brain if you had one?
[Chorus]
Overcoat boys
Undercut blues
An arm and a leg
For a couple tattoos
Ruddy red cheeks
Started off strong
If your folks don't freak
Then you're doing it wrong
You've got this far
'Cause your backyard
Wasn't quite cutting it
But if it gets dark
And if it gets real
You can click your heels
[Outro]
All this goes to show
It all just goes to show
It all just goes to show
It all just goes to show
It all just goes to show
