Lyrics

I SEE YA GOT YOURSELF A PRETTY PENNY OR TWO
A SHINY LIMOUSINE AND A NEW GROUND CREW.
A SWEETZEE BAG OF CHOCOLATES AND A CHINESE GAL
A MOHAWK, A GROWTH STOCK, AND A 45 CAL.
AND THOUGH SOME MIGHT RESPECT YOU: THE MAJORITY AIN'T THERE.
YOU'RE CAZY IF YOU THINK YOU'RE SITTIN IN THE CAPTAIN'S CHAIR.

CAUSE, YOU AIN'T WHO YOU'RE THINKIN,
NOT EVEN IN YOUR MIND.
YOU'RE LUCKY FIRST IMPRESSIONS
KEEP THE PEOPLE BLIND.

I SEE YOU WALKIN' 'ROUND IN YOUR SUIT AND TIE
AND MOST THE PEOPLE SMILE AS YOU PASS THEM BY
YOUR SHOES ARE OH-SO SHINY AND YOUR HAIR IS OH-SO NEAT
AND NO MATTER WHERE YOU GO YOU GET A RINGSIDE SEAT
AND THOUGH THE CROWDS APPLAUD YOU AS A GENTLEMAN
YOU'RE REALLY JUST A VULTURE IN YOUR SPORT SEDAN


NO, YOU AIN'T WHO YOU'RE THINKIN,
NOT EVEN IN YOUR MIND.
YOU'RE LUCKY FIRST IMPRESSIONS
KEEP THE PEOPLE BLIND.

IT'S A MAD-SAD SITUATION THAT YOU'VE GOT YOURSELF IN,
WHICH IS PLAIN TO-ME-TO-SEE ON YOUR SINNY-TIN-SKIN.
A MAN OF DISTINCTION(?) BUT IF THEY REALLY KNEW
THEY'D SEE YOU NO MORE SPLENDID THAN SOME SPIT TOBACCO CHEW.
HERE'S A WORD OF ADVICE THAT I'M SURE YOU WILL NOT TAKE
THE LIE THAT YOU'RE LIVING IS A MONSTEROUS-MISTAKE.

CAUSE, YOU AIN'T WHO YOU'RE THINKIN,
NOT EVEN IN YOUR MIND.
YOU'RE LUCKY FIRST IMPRESSIONS
KEEP THE PEOPLE BLIND.
