Something in Red

I’m looking for something in red
Something that’s shocking to turn someone’s head
Strapless and sequined and cut down to there
Stockings and garters and lace underwear
The guaranteed number to knock the men dead
I’m looking for something in red.

I’m looking for something in green
Something to outdo an ex-high school queen
Jealousy comes in the color of jade
Do you have some pumps and a purse in this shade?
And a perfume that whispers, “please come back to me”
I’m looking for something in green.

I’m looking for something in white
Something that shimmers in soft candlelight
Everyone calls us the most perfect pair
Should I wear a veil or a rose in my hair?
Well, the train must be long and the waist must be tight
I’m looking for something in white.

I’m looking for something in blue
Something real tiny, the baby’s brand new
He has his father’s nose and his chin
We once were hot lovers - now we’re more like friends
Don’t tell me that’s just what old married folk do
I’m looking for something in blue.

I’m looking for something in red
Like the one that I wore when I first turned his head
Strapless and sequined and cut down to there
Just a size larger than I wore last year
The guaranteed number to knock the man dead
I’m looking for something
I’ve got to have something
I’m looking for something in red.

Sad song... Especially sung by Elaine Paige. Concert was fabulous, the three of us couldn’t sit tight the whole time! Haha. And the bloody SAT results ARE NOT OUT YET! I can’t believe it! I’ve waited so long... and nada.

Owell.
