When You Get Dressed

You don't wear a suit and tie to go swimming
 You don't wear a bathing suit for Thanksgiving
 You'd look like a turkey and you might get baked
 With a pumpkin pie and a chocolate cake
 When you get dressed, think about
 What you're going to do when you go out
 You wear gold and purple for the Mardi Gras
 Or red, white and blue for the Fourth of July
 You wear orange and black on Halloween
 Or a scary mask that'll make them scream
 When you get dressed, think about
 What you're going to do when you go out
 Oh yeah, there's a time and there's a place
 Oh yeah, unless you come from outer space
 You don't wear boots if you're running in a race
 You don't want breakfast on your face
 Would you wear shorts to play in the snow
 Or a coat to the beach in Kokomo
 When you get dressed, think about
 What you're going to do when you go out
 Oh yeah, there's a time and there's a place
 Oh yeah, unless you come from outer space
 You don't wear a ski mask to the bank
 Or an evening gown to drive a tank
 You wear a pair of socks with a pair of shoes
 Jump out of a plane with a parachute
 When you get dressed, think about
 What you're going to do when you go out
 When you get dressed, think about
 What you're going to do when you go out
 When you get dressed, think about
