A Wooden Dress (The Dressmaker’s Song) Lyrics by The Minute Hour

My Life Is a Joke

2018

[Intro]
This is called
The dressmaker's song
[Verse 1]
A wooden dress
Last night, I carved you a wooden dress
To protect you
From the world's unsavory caress
From the world's unrelenting molest
For no man I know can molest
Through a wooden dress
[Chorus]
Sculpted and flowing
With wood grain a-glowing
A little leg showing
This dress makes the rest look like crap
And it lasts
If you love it, it loves you right back
That's some magic
It's wooden, not fabric
Timeless, forever
And built for all weather
This dress is a treasure
This dress buries trеasures in it
[Bridge]
I wanna make a dress that's so good and so woodеn that
You could be married in it
I wanna make a dress that's so good and so wooden that
You could be buried in it
I wanna make a dress that's so good and so wooden that
You could be married in it
I wanna make a dress that's so good and so wooden that
You could be buried in it
[Verse 2]
Not that you're dead or necessarily even dying
But it could happen, hey, it could happen
And when you least expect it
In that case, the best case is if
You were encased in that dress
I'd dig a little grave and, well, you know the rest
[Chorus]
Sculpted and flowing
With wood grain a-glowing
A little leg showing
This dress makes the rest
[Outro]
You will never need to wear another dress
And you never will
I forbid it
I strictly forbid it
Good choice
