about

It's all about chill vibes and comfortable waistlines.

lyrics

Ooh
Ahh
Mmm

What should I wear today? Hmm.
Something that says
“I don’t care what they say.” Uh uh.
Something shapeless, and equally bold
A unique garment that makes me feel hot, and yet, so cold.

Warmed by that day-off glow and
Kissed by the sun
I float through my closet
And ah! I’ve found the one.

One square of fabric, and just two holes.
One for your head, and one for where the rest goes.
The only thing I want to wear for the rest of my lifespan.
Is my flowy showy, billowy caftan.

Ooh
Ahh
Mmm I can breathe
Ooh I’m swimming!

Write me a postcard, and do it post-haste.
Tell me all of your thoughts and dreams,
Use extra postage just in case.
Sign it date it, and hand it off to the mailman.
Address it to my naked body because now I live in this caftan.

Key change!

One square of fabric, and just two holes
I always wanted to live in a blanket, so this works, I suppose
The only thing I want to wear for the rest of my lifespan
Is my flowy showy, billowy caftan.

One size fits all.
I bought it at the mall.
For a good time call…
Somebody else.

If it involves putting a bra on, I don’t wanna hafta see you.
