Lookin' good

Long as you´re lookin´ good...
You can win the admiration,
Of the current population,
You can be star,
Long as you´re lookin´ good!
You have made the main connection,
You can win the next election,
Don´t care who you are,
Just leave them mesmerised, give their eyes a picture to play with,
And you will be so surprised at how much you can get away with!
Long as you´re lookin´ good!
Let that be your main credential,
You´ll get treatment preferential,
It´s a rule that´s still essentially iron-clad,
Remember you can´ look bad,
Long as you´re lookin´ good!
(instrumental)
You can tell the world to shove it,
Show ´em crap and make ´em love it!
Uh!
You can run their life,
Long as you´re lookin´ good!
They´ll believe you walk on water,
Even trust you with their daughter,
Sometimes with their wife,
Don´t have to know a thing, just look like you´re a sensation,
Don´t have to dance or sing to get that standing ovation!
Long as you´re lookin´ good!
You can show up late for dinner,
Play the saint or play the sinner,
A blag, a crank, a rank beginner,
Or just a cad!
Remember you can´t look bad,
Long as you´re looking good!
Long as you´re soundin´ good!
You can win the admiration,
Of the current population,
You can be star,
Long as you´re lookin´ good!
You have made the main connection,
You can win the next election,
Don´t care who you are,
Just leave them mesmerised, give their eyes a picture to play with,
And you will be so surprised at how much you can get away with!
Long as you´re lookin´ good!
Let that be your main credential,
You´ll get treatment preferential,
It´s a rule that´s still essentially iron-clad,
Remember you can´ look bad,
Long as you´re lookin´ good!
