lyrics

You can lounge around in a track-suit kid
But you’ll never catch that on me
I may be just a kitten, but turns out I am smitten
With chic and rakish toggery
Trade that polar fleece for a velvet cape or some gold lame
A touch of houndstooth or lace should put a smile on your face
Or won’t you look cute in brother’s three-piece suit?

Let’s get dressed up! Let’s get dressed up!
See how it feels in a high set of Mom’s heels as we dance the day away

You say, “Goodness, such refined taste! Well, how can you afford?” Without stoppin’, I just go shoppin’ in our cupboards and dresser drawers
Mom’s long skirt pulled up under your chin makes for a dashing evening gown
A flowered pillowcase tied loose round your face makes quite a statement when it sweeps the ground

Let’s get dressed up! Let’s get dressed up!
How much better to be dapper and dandy as we dance the day away

Don’t put off to tomorrow what you can do today
Toss yourself in to my dress-up bin, fun won’t be far away
That kneesock with a hole in the toe serves as a smashing evening glove Throw this pink scarf in or this feathered hairpin
You’ve got something special all the kids will love

Let’s get dressed up! Let’s get dressed up!
Throw on a sash, we’ll have a bash as we dance the day away
