Lyrics Quiz: Clothes

Lyrics about clothes. Name the artist & song.

  1. They seek him here, they seek him there. His clothes are loud, but never square.
  2. I, I love the colorful clothes she wears, and the way the sunlight plays upon her hair.
  3. She's so swishy in her satin and tat, in her frock coat and bippity-boppity hat. Oh, God, I could do better than that.
  4. Talking to the guy who lives downstairs and walking around in ridiculous flares.
  5. I'd like to drop my trousers to the Queen. Every sensible child will know what this means.
  6. Here he comes, he's all dressed in black. PR shoes and a big straw hat.
  7. Feel this sweater, there's no better than authentic Irish Setter.
  8. So baby, let's sell your diamond rings to buy some boots and faded jeans and go away. This coat and tie is choking me. In your high society, you cry all day.
  9. The way you wear your hat. The way you sip your tea.
  10. Bless my cotton socks I'm in the news.
  11. Your hat strategically dipped below one eye. Your scarf it was apricot.
