Evening Wear

(album: If - 2008)

This is my vindication
With a little decoration
No need to keep you waiting
(Na-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)
(Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba)
Be intimidated
By what we have created
Kiss underneath the radar
(Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)
(Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba)

I got myself a fucking life
Dressed up in evening wear
I dress myself in fucking lies
I don't care
Makeup won't help me much, too much
It's not fair
To be compared to you
To be compared to you
To be compared to
You-ou-ou, ba-ba-ba-da-ba
Hey, hey, hey, ba-ba-ba-da-ba
You-ou-ou, ba-ba-ba-da-ba
Hey, hey, hey, ba-ba-ba-da-ba

Just call me "Mr. Modest"
I got it and I flaunt it
You can applaud if you wanna
(Na-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)
(Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba)
Cockblocking nonstopping
When this ass is a-rocking
Do not come a-knocking
(Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)
(Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba)

I got myself a fucking life
Dressed up in evening wear
I dress myself in fucking lies
I don't care
Makeup won't help me much, too much
It's not fair
To be compared to you
To be compared to you
To be compared to
You-ou-ou, ba-ba-ba-da-ba
Hey, hey, hey, ba-ba-ba-da-ba
You-ou-ou, ba-ba-ba-da-ba
Hey, hey, hey, ba-ba-ba-da-ba

Everybody wants to join the club
Once you join the club, the innocence is gone
Everybody wants to be the bomb
But once you are the bomb, the innocence is gone
Everybody wants a big old slice
Of the big old pie, the innocence is gone
Everybody wants it
Everybody wants it
Everybody wants—

I got myself a fucking life
Dressed up in evening wear
I dress myself in fucking lies
Guess what? I don't care
Makeup won't help me much, too much
It's not fair
Dressed down until I disappear
But I won't do it alone
No, I won't do it alone
Oh, I won't do it alone
Ba-ba-ba-da-ba
Hey, hey, hey, ba-ba-ba-da-ba
You-ou-ou, ba-ba-ba-da-ba
Hey, hey, hey, ba-ba-ba-da-ba
You-ou-ou, ba-ba-ba-da-ba
Hey, hey, hey
Uh!
