A Time To Buy
It's a time to buy, a time for shoppingGoing to the store and make a choiceBut everything she sees, it's like they're talkingTalking at her with a different voice
Laura's head is buzzingCan't remember what she came here forCouldn't keep her promiseNot to gaze at things she can't affordCuz there's shoes, bags and silk scarvesAnd dreams of summer daysAnd now she's wording a letter to her bossesFor a raise
But then she passes the baby sectionWith the tinest shoes on shiny trays
[Chorus]It's a time to buy, a time for shoppingGoing to the store and make a choiceBut everything she sees, it's like they're talkingTalking at her with their different voicesA singer's voice, and her mother's pleasAnd the voice of countless charitiesBut the one she heeds with certainty saysHave it all, have it all, have it all
Margaret's by the mannequinsGazing at their suits and shoulders still no manAnd it's another year of winter holidaysBut soon she'll have him, and buy himThey'll sit like this and they'll go skiing every yearHe's around the corner, the man who'll love herAnd understand her and her career
[Chorus]It's a time to buy, a time for shoppingGoing to the store and make a choiceBut everything she sees, it's like they're talkingTalking at her with their different voicesA singer's voice, and her mother's pleasAnd the voice of countless charitiesBut the one she heeds with certainty saysHave it all, have it all, have it all
[Repeat Chorus to End]
