Your New Dress

Post by jeff robertson »

I know you think your new dress makes you hot.
You lord it over everyone who is not.
But when you're old and out of breath
and staring straight into your death
nobody's gonna give a shit about your dress.

"I've got money, screw the rules" you say
but there's a price that even you must pay
and when your bones have turned to dust
just like all the rest of us
nobody's gonna give a shit about your dress.

You think you call all the shots around here.
But we'll all be dead for fifty billion years.
and when the sun expands in size
and the earth is vaporized
nobody's gonna give a shit about your dress.

Your New Dress - Paco del Stinko

I had a dream I was a Kung-fu fighter
In a video game
I knew all of the people there
But they didn't look the same

On my feet I was much lighter
I could do the Kung-fu chop
But when you entered the room
All of the action stopped

You were wearing your new dress
And I thought you looked just like Isis

I walked ten miles with a street gang
A motley gang of toughs
At the bottom of the hill
You were waiting with the love

You were wearing your new dress
And you looked just like the Countess

I want to meet - my demise
Looking right in to - your pine green eyes
And see that you have your new dress on

On your bike looking like a kid
And smiling like the sun
But when you came to me
You told me we couldn't be like one

You were wearing your new dress
And you looked better than your best

So my dreams, they are over
Or only just begun
I won't ever let you go
Until you say we won't be done
Until you say we won't be done
Until you say we won't be done
Bringin' the stink since 2006.

"Your New Dress" by Heuristics Inc. (all sounds)

To : All Employees
From : The CEO
Subject: Your New Dress

Let me take this opportunity
To promote comp'ny unity
Since we share a common aim
Let's all dress exactly the same

Mondays we'll get down to business
Coats and ties and we can't miss
We'll be casual on Tuesday
That will drive the blues away

Wednesdays we will wear tuxedos
Formal dress will be our credo
Then to ensure gender neutrality
Thursday's gowns will make vitality

Friday's the best day, if you aren't a prude
'Cause I'm taking off and you all go nude
You might find this all hard to swallow
But if we do this profit will follow

Your New Dress

It’s got a zipper in the back that goes all the way down her ass
It’s got a cut in the front that goes all the way down to her bellybutton
Between your hairdo and the new shoes the battle lines are drawn
And I’ll do my best to liberate you by dawn

From your new dress, I must concede
It’s got me picturing you naked in anti-gravity, and
I must confess, it’s the kind of dress that looks better hanging off the back of a door

It’s got a slit in the side that goes all the up her thigh
It’s got a hole in the part that could only be considered high art
Now, it’s pro’lly pretty pricey, but I’m too straight to care
My goal is still to separate you from your underwear

And your new dress, I must concede
It’s got me questioning Newton and his gravity, and
I must confess, it’s the kind of dress that looks better wadded up on the floor
It’s the kind of dress that looks better wadded up on the floor

Your New Dress by Kasper

Without me, you wouldn't have this house to kick me out of
Without me, you wouldn't have those new shoes to stomp my pride
The things you take for granted from the money I sent back
Without me you wouldn't have your new dress to wear while you attack

Now I have never claimed to be perfect
And I'm sure I was wrong a time or two
But what did I ever do that was so so bad
To deserve all the hell you put me through

Yeah I would really like to go on living
But I don't know where to start
Did you really have to wear your new dress
When you walked out to break my heart

Well I hear you went and found yourself a new man
And I wish that I could wish it works out well
But I sit here in the ashes that used to be my life
And you and your new dress can burn in hell

Yeah you and your new dress can burn in hell
You and your new dress can burn in hell

Your New Dress
(c)2009 Pathetic Wannabees

I once was Man
Now I'm Nun
zero plus zero
Is the sum

In the closet
I must confess
considering wearing
your new dress

[chorus]
It's got the frills
that gives me chills
It's got the hem
that screams 'Fem'!
Don't you know?
I'll look my best...
in your new dress

It'll be a shock
down on the docks
Longshoremen's
World is rocked

But I will know
friend from foe
In your new dress
the line I toe

[repeat chorus]

Today's the day
I'll have my say
To the nines
I'm on my way

You always say
what's yours is mine
in your new dress
I'll be just fine

[repeat chorus]
...in your new dress!
...in your new dress!
...in your new dress!

Why don't you put on your new dress
The one you bought in Paris
The one that makes you feel free
So light, so airy
The whisper of silk and chiffon is such an assuring song
Close your eyes
You're there again

Open you eyes
Life is so off-the-rack
If you could turn things back
Or were you dreaming?
You look so surprised
In your T-shirt and your jeans
You don't understand what it means

One size fits all
You can be traded in
Someone is wearing your skin
You can't get it back
So long ago
Was it just yesterday?
You always knew what to say

Why don't you put on your new dress
The one you bought in Paris
The one that makes you feel free
So light, so airy
The whisper of silk and chiffon is such an assuring song
Close your eyes
You're there again

you got a new dress & it looks good
slinkin' down the avenue - I got some wood
gonna pull it out - lay it on the floor
you a new dress - I got a 2 x 4

you got a secret - you got a new plan
chase me across the galaxy - I am your man
do you love me? yeah, I know you do
you got a secret - I'll get inside of you

just remember, I got your number
it's 6 of 12

are you an angel? I didn't think so
what gave it away: your glowing backbone
are you a program? then what am I?
are you an angel? what's with this binary lie?

just remember, I got your number
it's 6 of 12

no one can see you - are you in my head?
trundle down the corridors - you want me dead
you are a player - I am your pawn
no one can see you - you are my very own cylon

just remember, I got your number
it's 6 of 12

It wasn't fun
The day that it finally sank in
That we were done
But my mind wasn't changed even then

You're made of light
In my eyes
You're made of light
In my eyes

And I know you don't see me
Now you've got somebody else to impress
But I still can't help but look your way
And girl, you look so pretty in your new dress

The latest guy
I don't think I'll ever like him
But I don't see why
I should hate you after all that we've been

And I hope he won't stay
Because I don't want you to settle for less
But I don't want your back, I just want
You to know, you look so pretty in your new dress

Your New Dress by Mr Johnny Cashpoint, esquire.

Read depressing article in scientific magazine -
Said we’re random particles, a hundred billion smithereens
Faced with all this nothingness, your new dress is meaningless

But oh, you still look beautiful, for what it’s
Worth, you look so beautiful in your new dress

So your new dress doesn’t fit quite as well as the last one did
And so on, so forth forever, flattery won’t make things better
Words reveal their emptiness - quite unlike your tight new dress

But oh, you still look beautiful, for what it’s
Worth, you look so beautiful in your new dress

When platitudes are all that’s left
To jam the jaws of nothingness
Though essentially meaningless, they’ll just have to do, I guess

Hey baby girl, you lookin good in those jeans
heard they had to upgrade ya to size 14s
but that ass so fat they still busting at the seams
a woman like you could be the girl of my dreams
cuz you carry yourself with such poise and intelligence
next to you all others are reduced to irrelevance
not a hoochie mamma, but nah, you're not celibate
but that can be our secret, bay-bay, I ain't tellin it
(ummm!) you got mad curvaceousness
(god damn!) on top of that, your face is just
beautiful, you're the white Jill Scott
let me tag it from the back, and hit the ill spot (oh!)
I'm sufficiently skillt
you ain't overweight, you're traditionally built
so take another plate and dismiss with the guilt
we going out dancing, take off those pants and

[Chorus x 4]
Hey pretty baby put your new dress on
it ain't a problem put your new dress on

Ten years later so you're up a few sizes
your ass and thighs is mighty fine prizes
temperature rises and that's not all
gotta have you looking fresh so I send you to the mall
yeah you spend all my money but you got the most schwag
gotta have the shoes and the matching coach bag
gotta have those dereon jeans in size twenty
and when I run out of dough, you got your own money
(ummm!) you're working on your masters degree
(we go jogging) and you know you're running faster than me
you work out on the reg, keep your cardio tight
so you have the energy to rock my body all night
you're at your intellectual peak
your thirty years old and a sexual freak
you're getting better every year and with every extra pound
if that dress don't fit, go and buy a new gown (my treat)

[Chorus x 4]
Hey pretty baby put your new dress on
it ain't a problem put your new dress on

Your New Dress - The Deck (Dan Hewins)

What's that there
Hanging on that hanger
Looks fancy
I think I like it

Put it on

Your new dress
better than the old one
I wanna see it
When you wear it

Put it on

Your new dress
For a special occasion
What's coming
I think I know

Put it on

Your new dress
Looks good on you
Don't wear it out
Better take it off

Take it off

Your New Dress
Berkeley Social Scene
Lyrics by Ken Mahru
(slightly sullied by glennny)

V1
Is that the way it is?
You think this is yelling?
Take those headphones off your ears
and try to listen for a change

PC
I'm the same, I'm the same, I'm the same!
despite what you might say, despite what you might say!
I'm not out trying to impress
Like your new dress

Ch
Why do you act so surprised
I see through your disguise
you cover it up with honesty
camouflaged you're faking

V2

Do you have something to prove?
You think this fight isn't new?
Leave a message on your phone
and try to get, try to get, try to get over it

PC

I'm the same, I'm the same, I'm the same!
despite what you might say, despite what you might say!
I'm not out trying to impress
Like your new dress

Ch

Why do you act so surprised
I see through your disguise
you cover it up with honesty
camouflaged you're faking

V3/Outro

Why are you always, why are you always
looking behind you, looking behind you?
Are there eyes in the back.., are there eyes in back..
back of your head? .. back of your head
Make your own way, make your own way..
way through the world, way through the world
and try to crawl back to me, try to crawl back to me,
try to crawl back to me.

Your New Dress

Post by AdamFarLand »

I can't pretend
that it's only the wind
moving your new dress around

maybe if were far
or locked in my car
or just could not hear the sound
flutter in my ear drums
wafting to my nose

I can't pretend
that it's only the wind
moving your new dress around


(yes... it is a fart song)
