It's no good for my pride
But lately my time is spent inside
My world don't change
But here you come to rearrange it so...

I'm putting on my good pants for you
Cuz I've got a feeling that you'll be true
All week you know I've saved them
For just such an occasion
Cuz with you
I have something to do
I'll wear good pants for you

I'm a dreamer I know
But I just cleaned them three weeks ago
Time sure does fly
Watching marathons of CSI

I'm putting on my good pants for you
Cuz there's just too much the other pair's been through
The crotch doesn't have holes
And it's soothing to my soul
Cuz it's true
You stop me feeling blue
I'll wear those pants for you

I wouldn't break them out for the president
I wouldn't break them out on my own
I wouldn't break them out for Dame Judy Dench
Darling you're the reason I even own them

I know things might seem gray
I ate cheese for every meal today
But with you here
All optimism rings so clear

I'm putting on my good pants for you
I should really buy a new pair or two
The elastic is starting to give
I guess the good's all relative
But soon
I'll wear those pants for you

I'm putting on my good pants for you
And I'll keep them on if you want me to
Now I've something to wear them for
Until they're not good anymore
It's true
I'll wear good pants for you
I'll wear good pants for you
