Lyrics

[Verse 1]
They seek him here, they seek him there
His clothes are loud, but never square
It will make or break him so he's got to buy the best
'Cause he's a dedicated follower of fashion
[Verse 2]
And when he does his little rounds
'Round the boutiques of London Town
Eagerly pursuing all the latest fads and trends
'Cause he's a dedicated follower of fashion
[Chorus]
Oh, yes he is (Oh, yes he is)
Oh, yes he is (Oh, yes he is)
He thinks he is a flower to be looked at
And when he pulls his frilly nylon panties right up tight
He feels a dedicated follower of fashion
[Chorus]
Oh, yes he is (Oh, yes he is)
Oh, yes he is (Oh, yes he is)
There's one thing that he loves, and that is flattery
One week he's in polka dots, the next week he's in stripe
'Cause he's a dedicated follower of fashion
[Verse 3]
They seek him here, they seek him there
In Regent Street and Leicester Square
Everywhere the Carnabetian army marches on
Each one a dedicated follower of fashion
[Chorus]
Oh, yes he is (Oh, yes he is)
Oh, yes he is (Oh, yes he is)
His world is built 'round discotheques and parties
This pleasure-seeking individual always looks his best
'Cause he's a dedicated follower of fashion
[Chorus]
Oh, yes he is (Oh, yes he is)
Oh, yes he is (Oh, yes he is)
He flits from shop to shop just like a butterfly
In matters of the cloth he is as fickle as can be
'Cause he's a dedicated follower of fashion
[Outro]
He's a dedicated follower of fashion
He's a dedicated follower of fashion
