You think fashion is shallow and vapid
A superficial path
I mean, your clothes, your hair, you don't care what you wear
You just wanna teach high school math
Or be a writer
It doesn't matter what road you walk
Someone's gonna see your shoes
You can dress to connect, set the mood, show respect
Or you can, of course, refuse
Nigel, I didn't say that
Hey, you're whining like you're looking for advice
If you want mine, I'll tell you
Miracles can happen when your soul and style combine
Bottom line?
You wanna go far?
Dress your way up
You wanna prove who you are?
Dress your way up
You wanna get your dues?
Dress your way up
Do it for you
Dress your way up
You can call it vanity
Well, I say it's taking pride
I say dress your way up, up, up
And show us who you are inside
You're right
I know
Uh, Nigel, could you give me, like, a mini-makeover?
A mini-makeover?
Honey, you're Extreme Makeover, Home Edition
You need Gucci like you need air (yes)
Plus, a little Cartier (whoo, I like that)
Some Chloรฉ suede, here, this is handmade
Anything I say, obey (okay)
If you can't judge a book by its cover
No one's ever gonna read it
If you're so damn smart, then start looking the part
Lord knows you're gonna need it
Getting there is urgent, don't emerge until you look pristine
Get ready, there'll be buttons and braces
And zippers in places you've never seen
And if you need help, scream
You wanna get yours?
Dress your way up
You wanna open doors?
Dress your way up
Want an ego boost?
(Dress your way up)
You wanna get introduced?
(Dress your way up)
Then show them you are tailor-made
To get ahead of the pack
Oh, darling, dress your way up, up, up
And never, never, never look back
When Nigel's in charge, he'll make you perfection (oh, oh)
You will lose your mind when you see your reflection (your reflection, oh)
He can flip a four into a ten (a ten)
Turn your ugly cousin into Ken (into Ken)
He could make a cocker spaniel look just like Giselle
If you get the chance, he'll change your life with some Chanel
Yeah (yeah), yeah (yeah)
Andy went and dressed her way up
(She went and dressed her way up) yeah
You wanna go far?
(Dress your way up)
You wanna prove who you are?
(Dress your way up)
You wanna self-actualize?
(Dress your way up)
You want your star to rise?
(Dress your way up)
You wanna make your name?
(Dress your way up)
You wanna change the game?
(Dress your way up)
Wanna reach higher ground?
(Dress your way up)
You want to be renowned?
(Dress your way up)
Then show them you are tailor-made
To get ahead of the pack, oh, oh, oh
Darling, dress your way up, up, up
Darling, dress your way up, up, up
Darling, dress your way up, up, up
And never, never, never
Never, never, never
Never, never, never look back
