Skyhooks Don't Take Your Lurex To The Laundromat
I took my lurex suit down to the laundromat
I tried to get it clean
But when I opened up that lid
You shoulda seen what I seen
Yeah I like to spark in my rhinestone jeans
You know I like to shine
But I just wrecked a hundred dollar suit
With a nickel, a quarter and a dime
Don't take your lurex to the laundromat
I tell you brother that's not where it's at
Don't take your lurex to the laundromat
If your suit's all dirty then I'm sorry 'bout that
Like a little satin love a little silk
To get me through the day
But I'm so depressed with all this dirt
That I'm gonna dress in grey
Don't take your lurex to the laundromat
And that goes for leather and lace
Don't take your lurex to the laundromat
It'll clean that smile right off your face
If you put in your velvet it'll come out a mess
If you wanna wash here better change your dress
Don't use the spin dry or the blue blue bleach
It'll total your threads like dry cleanin' a peach
Don't take your lurex to the laundromat
You wouldn't take a surfer to the snow
There's a place for everything
And for everything there's a place for it to go
You wouldn't take a blind man to the movies
You wouldn't take a surfer to the snow
Don't take your lurex to the laundromat
Cos' that's not the place for it to go
