STORES

Every fabric that would let skin breathe
I choose a little less
As you drag me on a shopping spree
This is only another test

Every dress I do try on
My resistance fades away
Did I ever exist outside this rut?
Is there a fashion consultant I pay?

Every hour in Blackdress I spend
My body tries to cry
Sweating through each rocking night
A catalog call inside

I have't changed the way I dress
Since MANY a year gone stale
But in those years and the lifetimes past
I would not ever buy retail
And I shopped neither mall nor online I know
Though the chance has always been
So I search to find brand new Blackdress
Within this bargain bin

(chorus)

So I try to say
Goodbye Blackdress
I'd like to wear you still a whole lot more
But my fans have belladonna tied up in promises
To visit department store
Visit
Department store
Ooooh visit
Department store

We were rancid
She said "Every night I shall wear Blackdress"
I should have known from the first
I'd look just-widowed
But I wore you from the start
For no wardrobe mistress would buy wholesale

I don't think so. I think she has an incredible sense of humor that we only see in interviews and such. I think she'd get a kick out of it; after all, it is her music (and bad sense of fashion) that is inspiring these masterpieces!

I hate you people, making me waste time like this

You could be my black dress
Threadbare hemlines ripping
I would wear none of the rest
Your chiffon seams my body gripping

Did you say it was ugly?
And did you say to change it?
Baby, I don't wanna know.

So I'll begin not to wear you
Turn around, see me sewing
I said I'd wear you years ago
And tell myself it never looked good...No...

Did you say that it was ugly?
And did you say to change it?
Baby I don't wanna know....Oh no...
And can you tell me what to wear now?
Really I don't wanna know.

Time cast a spell on my sense
But I won't change me
I could've worn something else
But you would not let me

I'll follow my fashion till the sound
Of my fans will haunt you
(Give me back my dress)
You'll never get away from the smell
Of the woman that wears you
(Was I just a prude?)

I'll follow my fashion till the sound
Of my fans will haunt you
(Give me back my dress)
You'll never get away from the smell
Of the woman that wears you
(Never change my dress...Never change my dress)

You could be my black dress...
Threadbare hemlines ripping

(Thank you so much. My black dress is a great old thing.)

Wait a minute Stevie
Change that dress awhile
Said you'd wear it out
But you ought to burn it in the fire

Drowning in your black dress
Which everyone would love to change
And now it's on
You've got no style anymore
When you change that dress
Then call me home

And it was just like a great dark dress
Within the folds of your wardrobe
I think you have found your dress
It is worn out
And tearing at the laces
Tearing at the laces

Black dress... you're the evil in her heart
Never changed, never washed
And now it's on
It doesn't matter what for
When you wear that dress
I'll walk on by

All I ever wanted was to know that you were changing
(There's a black dress and it never really died)

If you wake up and don't want to change
If it seems just a little strange
Open your eyes and look at that dress
You'll see you wanna give it a rest

Don't stop wearing that black dress
Don't stop, it soon will tear
It'll be dirtier than before
Your dress is gone, your dress is gone

Why not change for times to come
And forget about that dress that you've done
If the critics were bad to you
Just think what that dress will do

(chorus)

All I want is to see you wear
Something else in your closet there
I know you don't believe that it's true
That dress never looked good on you

(chorus)

Change that black dress
Change that black dress

(My first post-1st-night-of-Leno contribution: Destiny Rules/Cardigan's Cool)

Maybe I wore cardigan
Right on Blackdress
Maybe I bought some new dress
In a parallel universe
Maybe my sleeves were not supposed t0 hang around me

I've thought to change you now and then
I wonder can you come off or are you sealed
Sometimes I just stand
As I sing into the microphone
Just to make sure platform Reeboks are real
Just to make sure bad hip will heal

When I wear you again
As I ALWAYS do
It occurs to me that
Blackcardigan's cool
To conceal poochy stomach from the song lampooning Ledgie board
These days when standing next to Venus
It's just a no-glitter rule
I wear no jewels

Thursday night on the Tonight Show
How the song choice blew
I didn't sing my heart out
But somehow I knew
That that would be our second chance
That we could pitch our new album
We'd said "It's chilly, Matt Lauer, achoooo"

I like the front button sweater
I like Blackdress
I like the way that the whole look blends
Into my other nights
It's like working on an Amish country
Like a zipperless frock
Love my Blackdress

When I wear you again
As I ALWAYS do
It appears to me that
Blackcardigan's cool
To conceal poochy stomach from the song lampooning Ledgie board
These days when standing next to Venus
It's just a no-glitter rule
I wear no jewels

Cardigan's cool...

Can you see me wearing
My black dress
You know it's appalling
And it's not just a test

I wear it every time I
Go onstage
Though it's putting all the ledgies
On line in a rage
Oh I
Wanna wear this dress everywhere
Oh I....
Wanna wear this dress everywhere

Something happened
Happened to me
My fans say I'm dressing peculiarly

Come one baby
we better put it on
Gotta get the corset
And the dingy chiffon

Oh I...
Wanna wear this dress everywhere
Oh I...
Wanna wear this dress everywhere

After The Fabric's Frayed

Well I haven't been out shopping much in Hollywood
I haven't seen what new designs are made
But what I've worn these last six years is all I know
Since the IRS cracked down on bills I paid

For me it's the only dress I'll wear today
And a shawl or two that I have stashed away
Even though the costume makes all my fans insane, it's okay
I'll wear this black dress even after the fabric's frayed

The fashion scare of a brand new dress is hard to take
We all have habits and maybe this is dream
The unchanged togs of a rock and roll woman make your eyes ache
This dress keeps comin even without the platform heels

For me it's the only dress I'll wear onstage
And the Reeboks for when my sore ankle aches
Even though the hem is trashed and seams blown away, it's okay
I'll wear this black dress even after the fabric's frayed
I'll keep wearing it...even after the fabric's frayed

I'm so sorry, but I DO NOT want to see Stevie Nicks in a cardigan sweater.

With little white buttons.

Over that ragged-ass dress.

While on stage.


That was NOT a good thing.


This thread is as relevant and necessary as ever.

Carry on!

She should have worn her glasses to add insult to injury. I was just happy she had on something kind of new. I think she should follow Cher's lead and should make a visit to Bob Mackie!!!!!!!!

I'll close my eyes and travel back
to the time when I wore white, red, and a only a little black

as my black dress slips away

Goodbye Baby
Although your clasp was broken
I won't forget you
Yes, you now are forboten (sp?)
You were with me all of the time
I'll be with you one day

And I who went to sleep with needle, thread, and shears
Woke up in tears, for a new dress has seemingly taken off years
And I who never, never wanted to say goodbye
As I sewed away

Goodbye Baby
Although your clasp was broken
I won't forget you
Yes, you now are forboten (sp?)
You were with me all of the time
I'll be with you one day



OMG! FOTFLMFAOPIMFP!!!!!!
