Freaks in the Middle

With the fall season upon us, the sharp chill of the morning jolts me into getting back on the fashion high horse. (I tend to topple happily off that staid animal come summer heat.) In the brilliant ‘Unzipped’ documentary on Isaac Mizrahi, one of the ‘Vogue’ editors is talking about September. I paraphrase: “September is the January of fashion. This is when I get back on the high heels.” I’m not doing high heels until November at the earliest, but I am trying to tie the tie and arch the back on a more regular basis. Here’s a song for doing your best to be fabulous, and a sneak peek at some accessories for the upcoming months:

WE HAVE A FLAIR FOR THE SHADE AND THE IN-BETWEEN
WE LIKE TO RUN WITH THE WOLVES FROM THE DARKER SCENE
WHEN WE TURN THE SAFETY OFF, THE SHOTS ARE AUTOMATIC
ALL OUR FRIENDS TELL THEIR FRIENDS WE’RE SO DRAMATIC
WE’LL HAVE YOU WRAPPED AROUND OUR TRIGGER FINGER
QUEEN BEE YELLOW, YOU’RE THE SKIN FOR OUR STINGER
WE’LL MAKE YOU SWOON, MAKE IT HURT JUST A LITTLE
WE’RE THE BOYS AND THE GIRLS AND THE FREAKS IN THE MIDDLE

WE KNOW THE HALLS YOU WALK ARE UNFORGIVING
IT’S NOT THE KIND OF PLACE TO FIND YOUR PLACE AMONG THE LIVING
WE HAVE A PLAN, WE’VE GOT THE MEANS FOR YOUR LIBERATION
YOU’LL ONLY HAVE TO BLUR THE LINES ON A FEW OCCASIONS
WE HAVE YOU WRAPPED AROUND OUR TRIGGER FINGER
QUEEN BEE YELLOW, YOU’RE THE SKIN FOR OUR STINGER
WE’LL MAKE YOU SWOON, MAKE YOU HURT JUST A LITTLE
WE’RE THE BOYS AND THE GIRLS AND THE FREAKS IN THE MIDDLE
BOYS AND THE GIRLS AND THE FREAKS IN THE MIDDLE
BOYS AND THE GIRLS AND THE FREAKS IN THE MIDDLE

WE HAVE THE CURE FOR YOUR CRISIS NEVER PATENT PENDING
IF YOU COME ALONG WITH US THE DOORS ARE NEVER ENDING
IF YOU WANT TO RULE THE WORLD YOU’VE GOT TO STOP PRETENDING
IF YOU WANT TO RULE THE WORLD YOU’VE GOT TO STOP PRETENDING
SEE, WE’VE GOT THEM WRAPPED AROUND OUR TRIGGER FINGERS
QUEEN BEE YELLOW, THEY’RE THE SKIN FOR OUR STINGERS
WE’LL MAKE THEM SWOON, MAKE IT HURT JUST A LITTLE
WE’RE THE BOYS AND THE GIRLS AND THE FREAKS IN THE MIDDLE
BOYS AND THE GIRLS AND THE FREAKS IN THE MIDDLE
BOYS AND THE GIRLS AND THE FREAKS IN THE MIDDLE
BOYS AND THE GIRLS AND THE FREAKS IN THE MIDDLE
