Lyrics

Up the stairs, your vanity is calling on you, ooh
In the bedroom, the mirror shows you what to do, ooh
You open up your closets and drawers, they've been waiting for you
You try on everything you own and enjoy the view
Bangles and furs, put 'em on, they're yours
To go with the colors of the diamonds and pearls
You think they make you happy, but someday, you'll see
You got what you want, but not what you need
A thousand dollars' worth of perfume bottles
And a drawer full of diamond rings
Racks of shoes that you'll never use
You click your fingers, and a servant brings
A trunkload of precious jewels from across the sea
I'll give it a thought, is this what you really need?
Bangles and furs, put 'em on, they're yours
To go with the colors of the diamonds and pearls
You think they make you happy, but someday, you'll see
You got what you want, but not what you need
A thousand lonely nights have shown
How cruel it is to live alone
Money and jewels don't mean a thing
If you don't have a man to bring
The gift of a love to surround you every night
To break the worldly chains that bind too tight
Bangles and furs, put 'em on, they're yours
To go with the colors of the diamonds and pearls
You think they make you happy, but someday, you'll see
You got what you want, but not what you need
Bangles and furs, put 'em on, they're yours
To go with the colors of the diamonds and pearls
You think they make you happy, but someday, you'll see
You got what you want, but not what you need
