Dressing Up
Going under slowly
It never seems too late
Going under so slow
Dressing up to kiss
Dressing up to touch all this
I'm dressing up to dance all week
I'm dressing up to sleep
Dressing up to kiss
Dressing up to be all this
I could eat your face
I could eat all of you
Oh this night will never let me go...
Going under slowly
Never seems too late
Going under slow
You'll pick me up again

I can make dressing - or stuffing. Y'all call it stuffing up here, we call it dressing down there. It's really good dressing. That family recipe was passed on, and I love to make that.

T'is dopier to live in dystopia' (an ode to my sister)
My sister.
can't read. nor write.
but she knows not war.
my sister.
don't feed herself right.
yet she don't deal in war.
laughing at blackadder re-runs
recital of the every word
wearing tattered dressing gowns,
is she really that disturbed? ?
my sister. can't read. nor write
her pages scrumpled, ripped,
remain bright white, exempt of blood
my sister, unlike you,
fights off war.
she plays in peace, with adder's, black
dressing down, in her dressing gowns.

Nature Has Donned Her Dressing Gown
Snow is falling all around
like the shaking from a heavenly sieve while
Nature has donned her dressing gown.
Silently, it cascades down
for one and all to see, and smile
Snow is falling all around.
The beauty has arrived in our little town,
And all around the countryside for miles
Nature has donned her dressing gown.
Miss Kitty peers from the snowy mound
leaping and prancing like a ballet dancer, while
Snow is falling all around.
The pond is shimmering on level ground
the reflection of her majesty, she styles
Nature has donned her dressing gown.
There is not even heard a faint sound
As she hurries down the miles
Snow is falling all around
Nature has donned her dressing gown.

And then, all of a sudden, you're like, all that's great and fun, but Arthur Miller's in my dressing room. This is the third night he's been here and he sits in my dressing room for an hour after each show, and talks to me for an hour. So I'm pretty spoiled right now.

Window Dressing
What everyone see of us,
as we walk down the street,
is merely window dressing,
for what lies beneath.
Sometimes the ragged exterior,
holds something warm deep inside.
Sometimes we look older,
than what we really are.
No matter how people see us,
we know who we are.
Young at heart
and happy to be alive.
The rest is merely window dressing,
for our part that we play.

An Erudite Book
www.com to my heart and,
www.com to an adolescent who speaks;
But your 'dressing-logy' buffers the negative of the adverse of life,
And like what is seen at www.com always.
Filtered water is what you care for,
But do not let this water run out dry before the adolescent;
Because an erudite book is in the making!
And like what is seen at www.com always.
'Dressing-logy'!
www.com to the heart of the adolescent;
And this addiction is very hard to overcome,
But love is like the theatre of my mind.
Try to deal with your history very honestly,
Because an erudite book is in the making;
And i am now standing in the shadow of your love.

The Wind's Dressing Room
oh wind where do you go
before the dawn
oh wind where do you go
before the dawn
to return a newly born
oh wind where do you bathe
before the dawn
oh wind what is this odourless perfume
you wear every morn
oh wind where is your dressing room
is it near or far....your dressing room

Someone To Lean On
My life is incomplete without you,
For we all need someone to lean on;
And like the southern accents with the dressing code.

Amateur
you make me feel like im ok
i could be happy
now i can sit not run away
stupidly laughing
wipe out all self pity
it's slowing me down
turn off feeling pretty
dressing up dressing down
i walk around the city
out of my way, lookin for somethin
i've got all i need to save my day
so why am i running
you said i should get professional help
it always makes me cry
i know im just an amateur but
ive gotta try
i had a birthday party
and it was packed, got friends who love me
we hold the disco ball up and watch the lights
they were so lovely
when exactly?
i get the decades mixed up
i like the streets wet
see i can make the rest up
i can make the rest up
i can make the rest up

We are beginning to wonder whether a servant girl hasn't the best of it after all. She knows how the salad tastes without the dressing, and she knows how life's lived before it gets to the parlor door.

Dress Me Up As A Robber
Well you can dress me up as a robber
But I wont be in disguise
Only love is a robber
And he lives within your eyes
Ooh, ooh eee ooh
You can dress me up as a sailor
But Ill never run to sea
As long as your love is available to me
What do I do with a sea of blue?
Ooh, eee ooh
Dressing me up
It doesnt make a difference
What you want to do
Whichever way you look at it
Im still in love with you
If we go on forever
I may never make a change
Dressing me up
And if I dont convince you
You neednt look too far
To see that Im not lying
cos I love you the way you are
And whats the point of changing
When Im happy as I am?
Well you can dress me up as a soldier
But I wouldnt know what for
I was the one that told you he loved you
Dont wanna go to another war
No, no, no

Dark clouds hanging on the sky
Still I plea for a brighter life

Life Is A Drag
Submitted for your inspection
The evolutionary erection
Of primitive man
But before we explore the question of his sense of style
We must point out his predilection
To cover his glands
Brothers, weve been led to believe
That between adam and eve
There was nothing to hide
Were it not for eves primal haste
Or a leaf strategically placed
Who knows what shed decide
Eve and some guy named clyde
Thats why life is a drag
Life is just a pose in a rag
You can play the part of
Pusher or pastor
Of harlot or hag
Life is just a dressing game
Life is a drag
The argument can be rendered
All bodies are forcibly gendered
By how they are wrapped
And though popular opinion holds this
Makes us civilized
So much deference is attended
By whats in ones lap
History proves that
Who wears the pants is as much a mere circumstance
As a matter of time
Ultimately, why should we care
Where one buys ones lace underwear
If one is so inclined
Show me yours, Ill show mine
Thats why life is a drag
Fashion is a long running gag
We can deck you out in sequins or spandex
A mohawk or shag
Who remembers unisex?
Life is a drag
Its a drag
What a drag
You can be a stag in a bag
They wont know until youre stiff
On a slab and they look at the tag
What you see is what you get
Life is a drag
Lets just say
We hereby conspire
That a change of attire
Is all part of the plan
Something that was so long suppressed
Starts to show when you wear a dress
And if clothes make the man
They can unmake the man
Thats why life is a drag
Life is just a pose in a rag
You can play the part of
Pusher or pastor
Of harlot or hag
Life is just a dressing game
Life is a drag
Its a drag
What a drag
Fashion is a long running gag
Arent you glad they found a way to look hip
When your butt starts to sag
Praise the lord, designer jeans
What you see is what you get
Who remembers unisex
And who are you calling fag
Life is a drag

On The Golf Course At Dawn
On the golf course at dawn:
No one else but groundskeepers raking bunkers
and the red-orange fox’s fur
reflecting the sun.
Dew still dressing the greens.
After my ball glides past the hole,
I still see its path through the dew.
Crisp contentment in the air.
Quiet. A more than decent life.

In Dressing Room
In dressing room
Naked eventually to see the hands and feet
See the length of hands and feet
Like to see one’s length or shortness
Naked finally to see the body
See the body’s fat and lean
Such to see one’s tolerance and mean
In dressing room
Holding the picked and chosen clothes
Finally lone to face the mirror
Put on and take off, Take off and put on
Try on and change, change and try on
After all
How many times I should change to face a shameless I?
After all
How many time I should change to face the world

Bananas
(GillanGloverPaiceMorseAirey)
I've got nothing to say today
I used my words up yesterday
I'm just lying here in the sun
Watching you guys having fun
Seven days and seven nights
Working till you got it right
Don't help me I'll help myself
I'll pull some crackers off the shelf
She had her hair done yesterday
Now she's coming out to play
First you pull and then you push
Two in the hand and one in the bush
Oh, my love is
So excited
When I say we've
Been invited
Now we're going
To the palace
Dressing up for
Tea with Alice
Some will rise and some will fall
Some will come to nothing at all
The strangest people have the power
To lead me to my darkest hour
How can you be sure it's me
When it's payment on delivery
Oh, my love is
So excited
When I say we've
Been invited
Now we're going
To the palace
Dressing up for
Tea with Alice
Now my love is
Richer than rich
'Cause I studied
Mathematics
Graduated
Without honours
Everyone has
Gone Bananas

Ideal Perfect
Trying to be that idea of perfect,
When in reality we're all falling apart,
Dressing, acting, talking like everyone else,
What's wrong with being different? ?
Can't you see that's the greatest part of life...
Being unique.
Make that idea of perfect YOUR way.
When you feel alone,
Like no one cares,
Bad thoughts in your mind,
When you're on the edge of life,
Losing control...
Just forget about the world and everyone in it,
Stop trying to be that idea of perfect,
Just know...
You don't have to try for me or anyone else,
You're perfect and everything amazing to me,
Be yourself,
Because really you're so very special just the way you are
