Best Black Dress Songtext
von The Nields

Mr. George Fox requests the pleasure of my company
By pointed envelope marked "Special Delivery"
And I know what this means, most certainly
This means tonight Mr. George Fox will take me to Club Century
In my best black dress
In my best black shoes
Why should I refuse?
Most days are not like this, you understand
Oh no, most days find me taking ideas in shorthand
In a room alone with changing wedding bands
Mr. George Fox, I′ve got better things planned
In my best black dress
In my best black shoes


What have I got to lose?
He says, "That's what′s wrong with this generation
You're supposed to be making something new
But it's so much more fun to play in your parents′ historyland"
Speaking of which
Mr. George Fox has a daughter just my age
I′ve seen her once or twice at the other end of his estate
She has long purple skirts and an old mutt she got in college
I wonder if she's seen me creeping home at night through the foliage
Has she seen me?
In my best black dress
In my best black shoes
Would she be confused?
