Don't Take Your Lurex To The Laundromat

Oh, I took my lurex suit down to the laundromat
I tried to get it clean
But when I opened up that lid
You shoulda seen what I seen

Yeah, I like to spark in my rhinestone jeans
You know I like to shine
But I just wrecked a hundred dollar suit
With a nickel, a quarter and a dime

Don't take your Lurex to the laundromat
I tell you, brother, that's not where it's at
Don't take your Lurex to the laundromat
If your suit's all dirty then I'm sorry 'bout that

Like a little satin love a little silk
To get me through the day
But I'm so depressed with all this dirt
That I'm gonna dress in grey

Don't take your Lurex to the laundromat
And that goes for leather and lace
Don't take your Lurex to the laundromat
It'll clean that smile right off your face

If you put in your velvet, it'll come out a mess
If you wanna wash here, you better change your dress
Don't use the spin dry or the blue blue bleach
It'll total your threads like dry cleaning a peach

Don't take your Lurex to the laundromat
I tell you, brother, that's not where it's at
Don't take your Lurex to the laundromat
If your suit's all dirty then I'm sorry 'bout that

Don't take your Lurex to the laundromat
You wouldn't take a surfer to the snow
Now there's a place for everything
And for everything there's a place for it to go

You wouldn't take a blind man to the movies
You wouldn't take a surfer to the snow
Don't take your Lurex to the laundromat
'Cause that's not the place for it to go

So don't take your Lurex to the laundromat
I tell you, brother, that's not where it's at
Don't take your Lurex to the laundromat
If your suit's all dirty then I'm sorry 'bout that
If your suit's all dirty then I'm sorry 'bout that
If your suit's all dirty then I'm sorry 'bout that
