Tom Robson - The Label Song Lyrics

Tonight I'm goin' shoppin'
Gonna buy me some brand new clothes
They can't be just any old thing
They gotta have names everybody knows
And when I go to school tomorrow
Well everyone will be lookin' to see
Maybe this way they won't look too close
They'll just see labels all over me

Like 501's and Guess, and I love Espirit
Nike and Avias are the labels for me
I've got my stretch pants and my big baggy shirt
This style is really me
I got these really cool shades and Benneton
Whatever is cool, that's what I got on
I got radical clothes that everybody knows
They all look great on me

Now ya know it's not just the labels
Because the style is important too
I gotta have just the right image
I gotta look right in everything I do
I'll go out and do my shoppin'
Spend some money and have some fun
Then I'll wear it to school tomorrow
And I'll show it to everyone

My 501's and Guess, and I love Espirit
A Hard Rock sweatshirt is the style for me
I've got my stretch pants and my big baggy shirt
This style is really me
I got these really cool shades and I like Benneton
Whatever is cool, that's what I got on
I got radical clothes that everybody knows
They all look great on me

Now I think it would really be great
If we could dress any way we chose
And wouldn't it be great if we could all get to know
The person hid behind the clothes
Maybe we could make up signs instead
And we could bring 'em back every day
I'd sit down tonight and write one
And this is what it would say

The people at my house love me
They give me everything they can
I want to be friends with everyone
If you do too, raise your hand
Don't just check out the clothes I wear
Don't just check out my style
Ask me my name and I'll tell you
And we can talk for a little while

About 501's and Guess, and I love Espirit
Nike and Avia are the labels for me
I got those stretch pants and the big baggy shirt
The style is really me
I got a woven bracelet and Reebok shoes
I got a pair of holey jeans that I bought brand new
I got earrings that dangle on down to my toes
I got a Swatch Watch, don't you know
I got radical clothes that everybody knows
They all look great on me
I got radical clothes that everybody knows
They all look great on me
