Best Black Dress

Lyrics

Mr. George Fox requests the pleasure of my company
 By pointed envelope marked "Special Delivery"
 And I know what this means, most certainly
 This means tonight Mr. George Fox will take me to Club Century
 In my best black dress
 In my best black shoes
 Why should I refuse?
 Most days are not like this, you understand
 Oh no, most days find me taking ideas in shorthand
 In a room alone with changing wedding bands
 Mr. George Fox, I've got better things planned
 In my best black dress
 In my best black shoes
 What have I got to lose?
 He says, "That's what's wrong with this generation
 You're supposed to be making something new
 But it's so much more fun to play in your parents' historyland"
 Speaking of which
 Mr. George Fox has a daughter just my age
 I've seen her once or twice at the other end of his estate
 She has long purple skirts and an old mutt she got in college
 I wonder if she's seen me creeping home at night through the foliage
 Has she seen me?
 In my best black dress
 In my best black shoes
 Would she be confused?
