Tough On Clothes Lyrics - Deepcut To Nowhere - Graham Parker

That crazy shirt you wear 

It's gettin'thin near threadbare 

That ribbon in your hair 

Made outta lace and it's bound to tear 

Those ice-blue jeans you got 

With the hole in the back 

And the sunflower swatch 

People are startin'to stare 

God knows what's goin' on 

With your underwear 

Chorus 

You're tough on clothes 

It's gonna cost me a fortune 

To keep you in 'em 

You're tough on clothes 

I'm gonna have to get a job and 

Make a decent livin' now 

You're tough on you're tough on 

Go easy now, go easy child

Watch Beck's Heroic New Music Video For 'Up All Night' 

Those shoes like a blast from the past 

The heels are lookin'wobbly now 

They can't last 

That sweater with the maple leaf 

Went and lost it's shape 

In the very first week 

That jacket with the nice green piping 

Got hit with a tomato that was 

Really ripe and 

Those brand new joggin' pants 

Are covered with flies and crushed ants 

Chorus 

Your mother spends so much 

Time on stitchin' 

You'll have us all eatin' at the 

Soup kitchen 

You got a pair of pants for every day 

But none of them fit did you buy 'em that way 

Photos 

You tried on everything at the local mall 

But it's either too big or too small 

And that little black dress we bought ya 

It looks like it's been through some 

Kind of torture 

Those socks if they had half a chance 

Would walk on their own or 

Learn to dance 

And those brand new sweat pants 

Now is that dead flies or crushed ants 

Chorus
