Title: As Is
Lyrics As IsSome folks shop off the regular rack
Buy it, don't like it, they can take it back
We got to head for the rear of the store
Because we can't afford perfect anymore
As is, must go
Nobody has to know
As is, for less
Paying full price would be happiness
Some people dress in the latest of styles
Strut up and down the department store aisles
We make do with the dregs and the dross
Cost so cheap that the shop takes a loss
As is, must go
Nobody has to know
As is, for less
Paying full price would be happiness
How do we get so poor
Is this what we're working for
Dreaming of merchandise
That hasn't been marked down...twice
As is
The lady is rich but she's lacking in taste
All that Versace is really a waste
I'd wear the heck out of something so chic
Have to eat mac and cheese for three months and a week
As is, must go
Nobody has to know
As is, for less
Paying full price would be happiness |
