ADD TO MY FAVORITES
Give me good taste,
I need your guidance
There’s no time to waste;
Your dictates on fashion
Will become my passion,
I don’t wish to be disgraced.
Tastemaker, tastemaker
What should I wear?
Something that offers
Great style and flare,
What do you think?
Is orange the new pink?
And what should I do with my hair?
Tastemaker, tastemaker
Spotter of trends,
Cultural guru
Whose vision transcends;
What books should I read?
Please help me succeed
At acquiring the best sort of friends.
Tastemaker, tastemaker
Can you suggest,
Which boards I should join
So folks are impressed?
My house is too small
For a charity ball,
Perhaps a soiree might be best.
Tastemaker, tastemaker
What should I serve?
Something that’s tasty
With creative verve,
And table décor
With refinement galore
Which guests of good breeding deserve.
Tastemaker, tastemaker
How can I play?
If bowling is low brow
And baseball passé;
Museums are boring
At ballets I’m snoring
Is going RV’ing okay?
Tastemaker, tastemaker
You’ve made it clear,
That RV’s are out
Along with canned beer,
I don’t understand,
Why you must demand
Choices which seem so severe.
Tastemaker, tastemaker
Maybe you erred?
Or maybe it’s me
Who shouldn’t have cared;
What people might think
Of what I should drink,
And committees that I have chaired.
Tastemaker, tastemaker
King of panache,
Czar of refinement
A doer with dash
A snob none-the-less
Who I now confess
Is worse than my inner white trash.
