A Time To Buy

It's a time to buy, a time for shopping

Going to the store and make a choice

But everything she sees, it's like they're talking

Talking at her with a different voice

Laura's head is buzzing

Can't remember what she came here for

Couldn't keep her promise

Not to gaze at things she can't afford

Cause there's shoes, bags and silk scarves

And dreams of summer days

And now she's wording a letter to her bosses

For a raise

But then she passes the baby section

With the tinest shoes on shiny trays

It's a time to buy, a time for shopping

Going to the store and make a choice

But everything she sees, it's like they're talking

Talking at her with their different voices

A singer's voice, and her mother's pleas

And the voice of countless charities

But the one she heeds with certainty says

Have it all, have it all, have it all

Margaret's by the mannequins

Gazing at their suits and shoulders still no man

And it's another year of winter holidays

But soon she'll have him, and buy him

They'll sit like this and they'll go skiing every year

He's around the corner, the man who'll love her

And understand her and her career

It's a time to buy, a time for shopping

Going to the store and make a choice

But everything she sees, it's like they're talking

Talking at her with their different voices

A singer's voice, and her mother's pleas

And the voice of countless charities

But the one she heeds with certainty says

Have it all, have it all, have it all

It's a time to buy, a time for shopping

Going to the store and make a choice

But everything she sees, it's like they're talking

Talking at her with their different voices

A singer's voice, and her mother's pleas

And the voice of countless charities

But the one she heeds with certainty says

Have it all, have it all, have it all
