Dress Your Way Up

作词 : Shaina Taub/Mark Sonnenblick

作曲 : Elton John

You think fashion is shallow and vapid

A superficial path

I mean, your clothes, your hair

You don't care what you wear

You just wanna teach high school math

Or be a writer!

It doesn't matter what road you walk

Someone's gonna see your shoes

You can dress to connect, set the mood, show respect

Or you can of course refuse

Nigel, I didn't say that—

Hey!

You're whining like you're looking for advice

If you want mine

I'll tell you, miracles can happen when your soul and style combine

Bottom line?

You wanna go far?

Dress your way up

You wanna prove who you are?

Dress your way up

You wanna get your dues?

Dress your way up

Do it for you

Dress your way up

You can call it vanity

Well, I say it's taking pride

I say, dress your way up, up, up

And show us who you are inside

You're right

I know

Uh, Nigel, could you give me like, a mini-makeover?

A mini-makeover?! Honey, you're Extreme Makeover: Home Edition

You need Gucci, like you need air

Yes!

Plus a little Cartier

Woo, I like that!

Some Chloé suede

Here, this is handmade

Anything I say, obey

Okay

If you can't judge a book by its cover

No one's ever gonna read it

If you're so damn smart, then start looking the part

Lord knows, you're gonna need it

Get in there, it's urgent don't emerge until you look pristine

Get ready, there'll be buttons and braces

And zippers in places you've never seen

And if you need help, scream

You wanna get yours?

Dress your way up

You wanna open doors?

Dress your way up

Want an ego boost?

Dress your way up

You wanna get introduced?

Dress your way up

Then show them you are tailor-made

To get ahead of the pack

Oh, darling, dress your way up, up, up

And never, never, never look back

When Nigel's in charge

He'll make you perfection

Oh

You will lose your mind when you see your reflection

Your reflection, oh

He can flip a four into a ten

A ten

Turn your ugly cousin into Ken

Into Ken

If you get the chance, he'll change your life

With some Chanel

Yeah

Yeah

Yeah

Yeah

Andy went and dressed her way up

She went and dressed her way up

You wanna go far?

Dress your way up

You wanna prove who you are?

Dress your way up

You wanna self-actualize?

Dress your way up

You want your star to rise?

Dress your way up

You wanna make your name?

Dress your way up

You wanna change the game?

Dress your way up

Wanna reach higher ground?

Dress your way up

You wanna be renowned?

Dress your way up

And show them you are tailor-made

To get ahead of the pack

Oh, oh, oh

Darling, dress your way up, up, up

Darling, dress your way up, up, up

Darling, dress your way up, up, up

And never, never, never

Never, never, never

Never, never, never look back!
