Lyrics: Zipper Curse

I woke up feeling cute, decided I’d do something new Put on my favorite skirt, looked straight in the mirror, "I look great, hooray!" But then I walked out the door and tripped on the rug And suddenly my skirt was way too tight, and it gave a loud snug I tried to pull it up, but the zipper wouldn't budge So I just waddled to the car, looking like a pug Oh, my fashion sense is a tragic joke Every time I leave the house, I barely make it to the block All my buttons pop, my zippers won't stay And I’m flashing the whole wide world in the worst possible way It’s the zipper curse, baby, flashing stars and stripes I’m a walking fashion disaster, losing all my clothes tonight I had an interview yesterday, tried to look like I could lead Wore a crisp white blouse, looking sharp and sleek HR asked me a question, leaned in to listen close And I heard a pop—my front button flew right off, hit him on the nose! I froze in silence, covered my chest with my hand He looked down at the button, then back at me, took a stand And whispered, "You look... very comfortable today." Oh, my fashion sense is a tragic joke Every time I leave the house, I barely make it to the block All my buttons pop, my zippers won't stay And I’m flashing the whole wide world in the worst possible way It’s the zipper curse, baby, flashing stars and stripes I’m a walking fashion disaster, losing all my clothes tonight Is it karma? Is it fate? Or did I borrow a shirt from a toddler and it shrunk? I ask the tailor, he just shakes his head Says, "Ma'am, you’re just too much fun to be fed." So if you see me walking down the street And I trip and drop my shirt on the concrete Don't point, don't laugh, just lend me a coat 'Cause the zipper curse is a pain in the... polyester.
