Daniel Ingram - Art Of The Dress lyrics
Your rating:
Thread by thread, stitching it together Twilight's dress, cutting out the pattern snip by snip Making sure the fabric folds nicely It's the perfect color and so hip Always gotta keep in mind my pacing Making sure the clothes correctly facing I'm stitching Twilight's dress Yard by yard, fussing on the details Jewel neckline, don't you know a stitch in time saves nine? Make her something perfect to inspire Even though she hates formal attire Gotta mind those intimate details Even though she's more concerned with sales It's Applejack's new dress Dressmaking's easy, for Pinkie Pie something pink Fluttershy something breezy Blend color and form... Rarity: Do you think it looks cheesy? Something brash, perhaps quite fetching Hook and eye, couldn't you just simply die? Making sure it fits forelock and crest Don't forget some magic in the dress Even though it rides high on the flank Rainbow won't look like a tank I'm stitching Rainbow's dress Piece by piece, snip by snip Croup, dock, haunch, shoulders, hip Thread by thread, primmed and pressed Yard by yard, never stressed And that's the Art of the Dress! ------------------------------------------------ Twilight Sparkle: Now, the stars on my belt need to be technically accurate. Orion has three stars on his belt, not four. [Rarity] Stitch by stitch, stitching it together Deadline looms, don't you know the client's always right? Even if my fabric choice was perfect Gotta get them all done by tonight Pinkie Pie, that color's too obtrusive Wait until you see it in the light I'm sewing them together! Pinkie Pie: Don't you think my gown would be more "me" with some lollipops? Rarity: Well, I think... Pinkie Pie: Balloons? Rarity: Well... Pinkie Pie: DO IT! [Rarity] Hour by hour, one more change I'm sewing them together, take great pains Fluttershy, you're putting me in a bind Rainbow Dash, what is on your mind? Oh my gosh, there's simply not much time Don't forget, Applejack's duds must shine Dressmaking's easy, every customer's call Brings a whole new revision Have to pick up the pace, still hold to my vision Twilight Sparkle: That constellation is Canis Major, not Minor. Fluttershy: French haute couture, please. Rarity: Ugh... Applejack: What if it rains? Galoshes! Pinkie Pie: More balloons! Oh no, that's too many balloons. More candy! Oh, less candy. Oh wait, I know. Streamers! Rarity: Streamers? Pinkie Pie: Whose dress is this? Rarity: Streamers it is. Rainbow Dash: What? Rarity: Aren't you going to tell me to change something too? Rainbow Dash: No, I just want my dress to be cool. Rarity: Do you not like the color? Rainbow Dash: The color's fine, just make it look cooler. Rarity: Do you not like the shape? Rainbow Dash: The shape's fine, just make the whole thing... you know, cooler. It needs to be about 20% cooler. [Pinkie Pie] All we ever want is indecision [Rainbow Dash] All we really like is what we know [Twilight Sparkle] Gotta balance style with adherence [Fluttershy] Making sure we make a good appearance [Applejack] Even if you simply have to fudge it [All] Make sure that it stays within our budget [Rarity] Got to overcome intimidation Remember, it's all in the presentation! Piece by piece, snip by snip Croup, dock, haunch, shoulders, hip Bolt by bolt, primmed and pressed Yard by yard, always stressed And that's the art of the dress!
