Costume Party

went to the closet to put on some costume clothes
and there it was just hanging right above my head
my sister grabbed the tie that grandpa used to wear
and I only had eyes on that lavender dress (really had my eye)

(It's a costume party!) maybe it's the way some things button in the back
some are really scratchy some are silken thread
it's ok to try things on to see how it feels
because clothes I suppose are just the way that you're dressed

costume party, try on something new
costume party, see how all of these things look on you

pick out a coat and pretend you're a detective
or find a puffy hat and be a chef instead
wear both at once and let's pretend we're in a show
because clothes I suppose are just the way that you're dressed

maybe it's the way some things button in the back
some are really scratchy some are silken thread
it's ok to try things on to see how it feels (they feel)
because clothes I suppose are just the way that you're dressed

lets close our eyes
pull something down, and be surprised
everythings fair play oh yeah...
no matter what you see I know that me is me....

everyone gets to play
change what you wear today
we wear what we like

find something silly and wear it somewhere strange
t shirt on your bottom, or pants on your head
a hero isn't just the costume that he wears
and clothes I suppose are just the way that you're dressed

maybe it's the way some things button in the back
some are really scratchy some are silken thread
it's ok to try things on to see how it feels (they feel)
because clothes I suppose are just the way that you're dressed
