Lyrics

[Verse 1]
What is this place?
It's called a department store
It's, it's beautiful
Shhh
[Verse 2]
First a deep breath
Take it all in
Feel all those halogens warming your skin
Smell how they pump in pure oxygen
See, they care
[Verse 3]
Love
Excuse me?
Love, the new fragrance from Chanel
Oh, no thank you
[Verse 4]
I know you're scared
Nevertheless
Think of the people you want to impress
Swallow your pride for me
Just nod yes
And prepare
'Cause something's in the air
[Verse 5]
I think it's love
Exactly
[Verse 6]
Here you'll become what you're supposed to be
You think you can't, but you can
Think of the guy you want most to be
Here's your chance to make it
So take it like a man
[Verse 7]
What does she want?
Not really sure
Why can't we leave things the way that they were?
Why can I never say no to her?
[Verse 8]
What's that smell?
Subtext, by Calvin Klein
That I don't like
That's kind of neat
Guys who wear that get beat up on my street
Still I've come this far
I can't retreat in my shell
I'm in the hands of Elle
What the hell?
[Verse 9]
Here you'll become what you're supposed to be
You think you can't, but you can
Think of the guy you want most to be
Here's your chance to make it
So take it like a man
[Verse 10]
God, I love shopping for guys
Okay this is strange
Watching them change right before my eyes
Don't watch me change
Look at him striking a pose
His confidence grows
I'll grow like a rose
It's just clothes
God, I love shopping for men
Okay this is nice
They walk in a two, they walk out a ten
Is this the price?
Don't worry this is my treat
There's someone I'd like you to meet
[Verse 11]
Whoa
I look like Warner
Yeah
But it's just me
[Verse 12]
That's the best part
The outside is new
But now it reflects what's already in you
Couldn't change that if I wanted to
And I do not
Thank you
No, thank you
[Verse 13]
This is no gift
It's payment in kind
'Cause you saw beyond all the blonde to my mind
Oh, we've got to buy this
What, are you blind?
You look hot
Is he not hot?
[Verse 14]
Here you'll become what you're supposed to be
You think you can't, but you can
Think of the guy you want most to be
Not quite the guy I'd have chose to be
But when she's standing so close to me
I think I like her plan
[Verse 15]
Here's your chance to make it
A chance to make it
Take it like a man
A man
A man
A man
