The Preatures - Something New

The first time I knew I'd blown it
I said I was an actress
(Had somewhere big to go)
I was lookin' for a dress
Like the ones they make in Italy and France
A bodice at the back so you can't breathe
But you sure can dance

And I remember love
And the power of the moment
The shop girls bought every word
They took down my address, and they said
"Che bella che sei, che bella che sei
Quelli occhi verde coi capelli
Neri come la notte la Vera Bellezza"

And when I was in Vegas
I spent seven grand in a streak of madness
The colours of the season, they
Can make you feel brand new
And I release my mind
To the power of the moment
Even if that moment is forking
Out at the counter
Ooh ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh, ooh ooh

Confidence might drown a girl
But not until she's made to bend
Now I see you as you are rare and precious
Rare and precious, sayin'

"I could buy myself something new
I could buy myself something new, I could
I could buy myself something new
I could buy myself something new
I could, I could buy myself something new
I could buy myself something new, I could
I could buy myself something new, I could..."
