My Strongest Suit

In life one has to face a huge assortment
Of nauseating fads and good advice
There's health and fitness
Diet and deportment

And other pointless forms of sacrifice
Conversation? Wit? I am a doubter
Manners? Charm?
They're no way to impress
So forget the inner me, observe the outer
I am what I wear and how I dress

Oh now I believe in looking
Like my time on earth is cooking
Whether polka dotted
Striped or even checked
With the some glamour guaranteeing
Every fiber on of my being
Is displayed to quite remarkable effect

From your cradle via trousseau
To your deathbed you're on view, so
Never compromise, accept no substitute
I would rather wear a barrel
Than conservative apparel
For my dress has always been
My strongest suit
(Overwear)
(Underwear)
(Anytime)
(Anywhere)

Staying in or hitting town wards
From the top and working downwards
I ensure that every stitch
is stitched in time
(Is stitched in time)

Whether wig or hat or turban
Whether clad boudoir or urban
Not to strut your stuff
outrageously's a crime

And the few who are invited
To my wardrobe are delighted
As they wander through my things
To find en route
(We're wandering through your things)

That in negligee or formal
I am anything but normal

For my dress has always been
My strongest suit
(Overwear, underwear)
(Anytime, anywhere)
(Overwear, underwear)
I am what I wear
(Anytime, anywhere)
(Overwear, underwear)
(Anytime, anywhere)
I said anytime
(Overwear, underwear)
(Anytime)
Anywhere

So bring me all my finest
Most audacious, my divinest
Most revealing
Most expensive and to boot
(Most revealing)
(most expensive)
(Most arresting)
Most arresting
(Most heartstopping)
Most heart stopping
Most free-flowing (Overwear)
Most eye-popping (Underwear)
Most arresting (Anytime)
Most heart stopping (Anywhere)
Dress has always been
My strongest suit (I am what I wear)
My strongest suit (I am what I wear)
You know that
I am what I wear

Dress has always been
My strongest suit

So bring me all my finest
Most audacious, my divinest
Most revealing
Most expensive and to boot
(Most revealing)
(most expensive)
(Most arresting)
Most arresting
(Most heartstopping)
Most heart stopping
Most free-flowing (Overwear)
Most eye-popping (Underwear)
Most arresting (Anytime)
Most heart stopping (Anywhere)
Dress has always been
My strongest suit (I am what I wear)
My strongest suit (I am what I wear)
You know that
I am what I wear

Dress has always been my strongest
my strongest
my strongest
my strongest
my strongest
my strongest suit!
