You Look Good

You Look Good
(Moderate Blues Funk Ballad)

Hmmm hmm hmmm hmm


TO THOSE OF YOU WHO DIDN’T GET IT THE FIRST TIME
LISTEN UP

Hmmm hmm hmmm hmm
Home

I musta been mistaken
My confidence is shaken
Awww
To find that you’re a playa
After all this time
Awww

First Lisa then Tomika
Diana then Shaneequa
Now no more sleepless nights
And no more lies
Awww

For five years of my life I thought I’d be your wife
Instead I’m alone in bed
Can’t get you out of my head
Baby

You look good
But you don’t do me no good
Just like I often felt
I can do bad for myself

I’m surprised
That I stayed for all this time
Get on out if you would
You don’t do me no good

Uh-huh
You
Uh-huh
You
Uh-huh
You
Girl/Boy you don’t do me no good


Sometimes when you’re lonely
You think you have to only
Settle for what you got
Not get what you want

But trial and error’s shown me
No man can try to own me
‘Cause it’s not the wrapper, baby
It’s the package that counts

Awww

A pretty face don’t impress me
Not if it can’t caress me
Or send shivers down my spine
Let me say it one more time
(Baby you sho’ look good)

You look good
But you don’t do me no good
Just like I often felt
I can do bad for myself
Heya heya hey

I’m surprised
That I stayed for all this time
Get on out if you would
You don’t do me no good

They say that love is blind
Hmm
And beauty fades with time
Heeeey hey
You don’t know what I want
And you don’t know what I need
So I’m gonna
Find me another man
Who understands
The world is full of good lookin’ men
Wait a minute
I’ll say it again
Hey, nah na na

You look good
But you don’t do me no good
Just like I often felt
I can do bad for, bad for myself
Girl/Boy you don’t do me no good
And I’ll be better off alone

I’m surprised
That I stayed for all this time
Get on out if you would
Get out if you would
You don’t do me no good

And I’m sayin’
You don’t do me no good, hey
(Ad lib to end with chorus)
