One White Dress

[Janey]
I wasn't one of those silly little girls
Those perfect, pink and frilly little girls
Who long to wear makeup
Just aching to cake up their pores
Makeup still bores me

I never mooned over bridal magazines
Or sappy wedding scenes I saw on movie screens
And I might as well fess up
I never played dress-up and such
So why am I enjoying this so much?

Who would imagine that one white dress
Could totally spin my head around
I wouldn't be an emotional mess
Over any other dress I found

I've never been one for shopping 'til I drop
Or squeezing into outfits tight enough to pop
And primping? I hate to
I usually can't wait to be done
But I have to admit

[Janey and Aggie]
This is fun!

[Janey]
What is happening to me?
I've been sensible all my life
Maybe I need this little spree
Before I'm somebody's sensible

[Aggie]
Practical

[Janey]
Serious

[Aggie]
And eventually
Tired old

[Janey and Aggie]
Worn out wife

[Janey]
So
I'll do those strange things that everybody does
Acting like the fool I never thought I was
Pa will throw some old tux on
And spend lots of bucks on the show
It really sounds crazy, I know

Who would imagine that one white dress
Could easily shove all sense aside?
Fill up a room with happiness
And turn a practical
Rational
Serious
Plane Jane ordinary girl
Into a giddy
Bride
