Tim Rice and Spice Girls - My Strongest Suit

Overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere
Overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere, ooh

Now I believe in looking
Like my time on earth is cooking
With a polka-dotted stripe or even checked

With some glamour guaranteeing
Every fiber of my being
Is displayed to quite remarkable effect

From your cradle via trousseau
To your death bed you're on view so
Never compromise accept no substitute

I would rather wear a barrel
Than conservative apparel
Because dress has always been my strongest suit

Overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere
Overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere

Staying in or hitting townwards
From the top and working downwards
I ensure that every stitch is stitched in time

Whether wig or hat or turban
Whether clog, boudoir or urban
Not to strut your stuff outrageously's a crime

And the few who are invited
To my wardrobe are delighted
As they wander through my things to find a route

That in negligee or formal
I am anything but normal
Because dress has always been my strongest suit

Overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere
Overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere, ooh

Overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere
Overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere, ooh

Now you don't need a recital
Of the reasons why it's vital
That tonight my droppings will not be subdued

That from coronet to sandal
No one else is worth a candle
That I couldn't make more impact in the nude

So bring me out my finest
Most audacious, my divinest
Most revealing, most expensive and to boot

Most arresting, most heart-stopping
Most free-flowing, most eye-popping
Because dress has always been my strongest suit

Overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere
Overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere

Overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere
Overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere

Dress has always been!
Dress has always been

(Overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere)
(Overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere)

Dress has always been my strongest suit!
My strongest suit!

(Overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere)
(Overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere)

Strongest suit!
Dress has always been my strongest suit!

(Overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere)
(Overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere)
