The Lyrics

Just a strange thought that came to me. I'm not saying which female this is dedicated to. More than one, definitely not all, nor Karen either. Not one of my favorite Bacharach compositions or Carpenters hits - 'For all we know' was the one that really made me sit up and take notice. Listen to the OS here.
CLOTHES TO YOU

I just had sudden great idea
All the time make you near
Totally I long to be
Clothes to you

Be your pants, fall down from your thigh
Every blouse you go buy
Please wear me, I long to be
Clothes to you

I would sit inside your drawer'n
The lingerie together
You decide then how to make my dream come true
And you sprinkle perfume on your wear
And beads of sweat light-dampening my hue

Bling-a-bling, ding-a-ling

That is why all the boys in town
Follow you all around
Not like me, intimately
Clothes to you

(instrumental break)

Every day we wake each morn
I'll be your lace and leather
And decided to become your bustier too
And I wrinkle soon trussing your pair
And hold them so tight, I'm the size for you

That is why I'm your evening gown
Wrapping you all around
Skirts are me, we're floating free
Clothes to you

Flirt with me, brush against knee
Clothes to you

Wa-ah-ah-ah, clothes to you
Ha-ah-ah-ah, hosing you
Wa-ah-ah-ah, enclosing you
La-ah-ah-ah, clothes to you

Much more sanitary than the absorbent accessory that Charles wanted to be for Camilla.

I thought this very clever. Never thought about the clothes/close angle, but it works really well here. Tasteful and not creepy.

Thanks, Warren, I agree: not creepy, just a cute knock-off. I have no special interest in the naughty bits, and feminine hygiene products and accessories don't sub well anyway. I got three sets of 111 so far, so someone disapproves, but as they don't offer the simple courtesy of a reason, who can take them seriously?

You must know that the 1's are retaliation. The number of sets gives it away.

@ Observer - oh yes, I know. So does everybody else, I hope.
