08. Clothes

BarlowGirl
by BarlowGirl



 

Clothes aren’t what they used to be
They don’t seem to fit you and me anymore
Modesty is out the door
Flaunting what we’ve got and more is in
Yeah it’s in

They’re saying
Don’t ask why just wear what we say
You’ll look like a model if you’ll only obey
To get the attention, just do what we say

Pay so much for clothes so small
Was this shirt made for me or my doll?
Is this all I get?
I looked so hot but caught a cold
I was doing just what I was told
To fit in

We’re saying let’s ask why
Don’t wear what they say
Don’t want to be a model
They can’t eat anyway
That kind of attention will fade with the day
So I’ll stand up and say

Clothes that fit are fine
Won’t show what’s mine
Don’t change my mind
I’ll be fine

Behind the Song:
'About a year and a half ago, we had just seen a movie and we were upset about the immodest clothing the actresses wore. It made us want to protect our brothers in Christ, and men in general against seeing such things. Often, they have no choice because it’s always there, right in front of them. They can try to look away, but the damage has already been done. It’s everywhere. So we just wanted to, in a creative way, not a condemning way, speak up about that issue. Now, many times when we play that song, guys will come up to us after our concerts and thank us for writing it.' - Becca Barlow (BarlowGirl)
