Doel Sengupta presents
By Doel Sengupta
Dedicated to my friend Ronada Boompa and and Heath Ledger and my smelly smelly smelliestlt guy...
Clothes clothes clothes is it a hoax?
Whyfore do we wear them? Whyfore on
Earth to we keep them neatly to the floor?
Clothes are the most important thing to me
After my sweet Bahadur Hercules!
Clothes show and cover and are
Always worn to please and it's time
When you wear them to click and cheeze
Or squeeze a little lemon to remove stains
From the beautiful Rin Concentrate!
So clothes cover what they cover
Show what they show. So 1.2.3. Jet set go....
Some people wear them short
Some wear them as veils
But personally if you ask me
I am againt the Burqa from hell!
Because it is the greatest security risk
Usually harbouring real goons and terrorists....
Personally also even the nine yards
Or the 36 yards is my favourite drape,
The saree as it is worn today
Reveals too much! Why can't you see
On the roads of Lover's Lane all the girls
And guys clad in drapes and yarns of sarees
Revealing skin, seducing about!
Personally I like for meself more dignity....
The way you dress reflects how you truly feel
Or much you respect yourself
And those who prance about with thee!
It's vital to wear what is befitting
Self-respectfully showing utmost
Respect for others verily....
When you go to the fish market
Don't wear your Versace boots
And when you go to meet Mr Ambani
Do wear a suit with boots!
That is the norm... those are the rules
For all those monkeys who like wearing clothes....
When I worked hard in the papers
As a scribe I dressed to the occassion
Like it was a fashion parade to jive....
Clothes for me are my destiny
And none understands Clothes better than me...
I hate the plastic fabrics but the natural
Ones are gold and velvet and cotton and silk
And muslin and linen and polysall
Oh... oh... oh... oh... oh... oh....
The best way to dress up is by being
Your own role model, discovering thyself
Out of all the hotels and brothels....
Be yourself... drape thyself as you feel
And the ones in my heart always
Are even greater role models
All the way allways....
I worship Mother Nature with all my heart...
But none more than my brother Bahadur Beta!
The only way to not feel ashamed
Is by giving yourself the highest respect
And like I said respecting others
Is absolute bliss, absolute love, true joy!
Be yourself because self-care is the highest care!
And care for others with the clothes you choose to wear!
Clothes for me all ways all the way!
