Evening Wear Lyrics
This is my vindication
With a little decoration
No need to keep you waitin' (nahnahnahnah)
(Ba-ba-ba-ba-bap)
Be intimidated
By what we have created
Kiss underneath the radaaaaaaaaar
(Ba-ba-ba-ba-bap)
I got myself a fuckin' life
Dressed up in evening wear
I dress myself in fuckin' lies
I don't care
Make-up won't help me oblige too much
It's not faaa-air
To be compared to you-ou-ou [x2]
To be compared to
(You-ou-ou bap-bap-bada-bap)
(Be-be-be ba-ba-bada-ba)
(You-ou-ou bap-bap-bada-bap)
(Be-be-be bap-ba-ba-ba-da-da-da)
Just call me "Mr. Modest"
I got it and I flaunt it
You can applaud if you wanna (nahnahnahnah)
(Ba-ba-ba-ba-bap)
Cock-blockin' non-stoppin'
When this ass is a-rockin'
Do not come a-knockin' (nahnahnahnah)
(Ba-ba-ba-ba-bap)
I got myself a fuckin' life
Dressed up in evening wear
I dress myself in fuckin' lies
I don't care
Make-up won't help me oblige too much
It's not faaa-air
To be compared to you-ou-ou [x2]
To be compared to
(You-ou-ou baaa ba-ba-bap)
(Be-be-be ba-ba-bada-ba)
(You-ou-ou bap-bap-bada-bap)
(Be-be-be bap-bap-bada-da-bap)
Everybody wants to join the club
Once you join the club, the innocence is gone
Everybody wants to be the bomb
But once you are the bomb, the innocence is gone
Everybody wants a big ol' slice
Of a little pie, the innocence is gone
Everybody wants in [x2]
Everybody wants
I got myself a fuckin' life
Dressed up in evening wear
I dress myself in fuckin' lies
Guess what?
I don't care
Make-up won't help me oblige too much
It's not faaair
Dressed down until I disappear
But I won't do it alo-o-one
No I won't do it alo-o-one
Oh I won't do it alooone
Bap-bap-bada-da-bap
Be-be-be ba-ba-bada-ba
(You-ou-ou bap-bap-bada-bap)
(Be-be-be bap-bap-bada-da-bap)
(You-ou-ou bap-bap-bada-bap)
(Yay-hey-hey)
(ooh)

Add your song meanings, interpretations, facts, memories & more to the community.
I think this song is about an unpopular person now gaining a lot of popularity and losing their individuality on the way, getting sucked in to the rich lifestyle.
"Everybody wants to join the club Once you join the club, the innocence is gone"
You envy the popularity.. but once you have it, you become like them and the innocence has gone.
it's a song about being posh, and somewhat arrogant about your "beauty"
This song is about being an unpopular person, envious of the really rich socialites, until you become not only extremely pressured, but also fake because you act like them and you lose who you are tho the crap society consumes you with.
You guys are SO right! Thank you for sorting that out, didn't realize it 'til now.. Also, if there is something wrong with any lyric or anything, just tell me, and I'll correct it.
This song is sort of what gijter said but not exactly in my opinion this song is about how preppy kids and emo kids both act/dress and be fake to get across there style's and to "fit in"
I ... really don't know what this song means. XD
The other explanations just ... don't seem to fit D: Not for me, anyway. GAH.
D<
BTW I think it's "Make up won't help me much too much", not "Make up won't help me oblige too much"
Seems to be to just be about vanity.

I don't know, when I hear it I think about how it sounds like he's talking about dressing drag, but then again maybe that's just me

this is what it said in one of their myspace blogs its about how people dress in ways so to fit in and lose their individuality in the process
