Lyrics
That cruel world of fashion, catwalk, pret-a-porter,
Good-looking men and women, mesdames et messieurs.
While standing on a pedestal they show us the sign,
The brightest of our future wrapped up in some design.
We're leafing through the pages of the glossies all day,
We're switching TV channels aimlessly by the way.
We're dreaming of the fancy clothes, a good fortune's worth,
We're ready to spend all we have on that. Take their course!
Chorus
Fetish and fashion - take it for granted.
Fetish and fashion - you gotta wish it and want it!
Who's gonna wish it and want it?
They try to shock us, they have sent us into a trance,
They're almost real, they're so appealing, but at first glance.
Well I don't care, I'm so in love with this little lie,
I wanna wanna wanna touch the stars in the sky!
Impatiently we're waiting for the very next hit,
But ask yourself and tell the truth: Is this a real treat?
The world is changing fast and we are dying to be cool.
Just tell us what to do and we will follow your rules.
