"Weird Al" Yankovic - King of Suede lyrics

["Weird Al" Yankovic - King of Suede lyrics]

There's a sale on our gabardine suit's today
They're all thirty percent
Off from yesterday
There's Fortrel polyester, leather
Wool and tweed
Just a Visa or Mastercard is all you need

We've got every color
We've got ev'ry shade
We're located next door to
Willy's Fun Arcade
We got every fabric that was ever made
But I'm known in this city
As the King of Suede

We got portly and regular and extra-long
(Is my size up there?)
We got tailors to fix it
If it comes out wrong (Is my size up there?)
We got all kinds of sweatshirts
You can take your pick
(Is my size up there?)
With the collars ripped off
Like in that Flashdance flick
(Is my size up there?)

Our prices are low, my staff is underpaid
You can buy off the rack
Or have it custom made
And it's all guaranteed to
Never shrink or fade
Cause of my reputation as the King of Suede

If you need a tuxedo for your junior prom
(Is my size up there?)
We can get you the best
One that's made in Taiwan
(Is my size up there?)
We got jackets with patches on the elbows
Too (Is my size up there?)
And we'll sell 'em all
Factory-direct to you (Is my size up there?)

Well, I never made it past the second grade
It took all of my life for
Me to learn this trade
But my friends are all thinking
That I've got it made
Cause I'm known the world over
As the King of Suede

There's a two-for-one sale on
Our three-piece suit's
Check out our suede pajamas
And our suede-covered boots
You can try on our suede
Underwear if you choose do what you want
But don't step on my blue suede shoes
King of Suede

Don't miss out on our giant liquidation sale
(Is my size up there?)
Look for our color catalog
In next week's mail (Is my size up there?)
There's a sale on our
Double-knit slacks today
It's the same old sale as yesterday

Thirty years in the same
Location I have stayed there I am
Right next door to Willy's Fun Arcade
I got tough competition but I'm not afraid
Cause it's my destiny to be
The King of Suede

King of Suede king of Suede
King of Suede i'll always be King of Suede
I'll always be King of Suede
