Lyrics

By Ted Lehman (ASCAP) Copyright © 2011
Looking out for number one
will keep you safe and sound
will get you where you want to go
what will you do when you get there
with your head in the ground
and all alone
Oh Number One
look out for yourself
cause no one else will
keep watching your ass
is no way to see
what's in front of you
keep watching your ass
is no way to see
what's inside of you
Lowell says the same dudes you misused
but you don't see it that way
the way you look out for number one
you step on all the two's
all the ones who used to share
your pleasures and your blues
So number one here you are
more alone than you think
I bet you like it that way
cause when it comes down to who's around
I hope you can find yourself
so put your head between your legs and kiss your ass goodbye
