If I don't want to, I don't have to   I don't have to wear a dress   If you don't want to, you don't have to   You don't have to wear a dress   I'll wear shorts and I'll wear pants   I'll even wear pajamas to a dance   If I don't want to, I don't have to   I don't have to wear a dress      Dresses, dresses, I hate dresses   Dresses, dresses, I hate dresses      To a wedding, to a funeral   To a prom or to see your mom   Dinner date, don't be late   Just throw on some jeans and go get laid   If they called you a tomboy like me when I was small   Then if you don't want to, you don't have to   You don't have to wear a dress      Dresses, dresses, I hate dresses   Dresses, dresses, I hate dresses      I can sit with my legs apart   I can sit with my legs apart   I can sit with my legs apart   I can run and jump and play in the park      If I don't want to, I don't have to   I don't have to wear a dress   If you don't want to, you don't have to   You don't have to wear a dress      Dresses, dresses, we hate dresses   Dresses, dresses, WE HATE DRESSES
