I Like You In Velvet Lyrics - Singles - Mclaren Malcolm

written by: Malcolm McLaren/R. Kilgore/M. Kessler 

There's a girl I simply dote on 

She has no single flaw 

A simple skirt and coat on 

And a sailor had of straw 

Yet she looks more splendid 

Than all the world today 

She'll soon be my intended 

Perhaps that's why I say 

It's you I love 

Not your hat, your frock or your glove 

I like you in velvet 

I love you in plus 

In satin you are just 

Like your own lovely blush 

You're charming in silk 

Or a plain woollen shawl 

But you're simply delightful 

With nothing on at all 

Maybe you'll be in your balldress 

Or you perhaps I'll find, 

Dressed in your "What'd you call dress?" 

You're oh well, never mind
