Can't Wear White After Labor Day

Too much, too little, can't get it right
that's the way we feel most our lives
We're too tall, not tall enough
not big enough, too big for some

Who made these rules to define cool
We're sellin' out to these fools
Tell me why, we try and try
To please the world-don't know why
You are you and I am I
We can be ourselves- don't have to try

Hottest styles- like you're on trial
to the discard pile- this tales too wild
Remember when clothes were clothes
We'd put them on- head out the door

Don't wear white after labor day
that's what they say- give me a break
Brown and Black- better back up Jack
Don't pair em up-you'll catch some flack

Who made these rules to define cool
We're sellin' out to these fools
Tell me why, we try and try
To please the world-don't know why
You are you and I am I
We can be ourselves- don't have to try

Accessorise, winterise,
customise- you'll take the prize
super-sized, energized
no comprimise-forget the why's

Wear your jeans witha sports coat
No need to gloat- just glide and float
Three piece suit, sissy style or brute
all thug like or just be cute


Everybody has the freedom of self
All these rules can put yo soul up on a shelf
Won't judge you if you won't judge me
Stupid rules bring a silly misery

Just like dolls- we try to fit their mold
do as we're told- dare not be bold
Well, I am done- I'll individualize
Cuz I realize- I'm my own prize

Who made these rules to define cool
We're sellin' out to these fools
Tell me why, we try and try
To please the world-don't know why
You are you and I am I
We can be ourselves- don't have to try
