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 mesmerized

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

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 sounding good
