79: A Woman's Refrain

What shall I wear?

What shall I wear?

Do I dress for me?
Do I dress for you?
If it’s what I want
Does is please you too?

What shall I wear?
What shall I wear?

I’m not on this planet
to entertain, but
If I like that you like it
Does that make me vain?

What shall I wear?
What shall I wear?

Oh Heaven knows!
The question remains.
I’ll say it again.
It’s the woman’s refrain.

What shall I wear?
What shall I wear?

Now why do I care?
That’s an interesting question.
Because my mood is declared
By my clothing expression.

What shall I wear?
What shall I wear?

Am I happy and bold
As I walk out the door?
Or feeling tired and old
Can’t be bothered with more?

What shall I wear?
What shall I wear?

That’s it! I’m done
Too much psycho-analysis!
Choosing my clothes
Has ended in paralysis!

What shall I wear?
What shall I wear?

Quick! Make a decision.
Is it comfort or style?
Well I’m driving today
So that’s comfort by a mile.

What shall I wear?
What shall I wear?

Grab that old cotton dress
My most comfortable shoes
Pull my hair off my face
Style you lose!
