Looking Out For #1 Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Take it to the limit, I'm your sucker, here to win it
That dumb look on my face is sayin', "You could have your way with me"
Never could have known it, would have blown it in a minute
So don't you take my place 'cause it's a race to mock adversity

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm just looking out for number one (Looking out for number one)
I'm just looking out for number one (Looking out for number one)
Move it up or move it out
Move it up or move it out
It's my way, my way, my way
And I really don't care what you say
Looking out for number one

[Chorus]
Well, we used to believe in the hope and the dream
Then they hit you with their lies, hit you with their lies
When they turn you away and there's nothing to say
Well, they've cut you down to size, we see it in your eyes

[Verse 2]
Take me to the bottom 'cause we got him and we know it
Abandon and boycott 'em, should've shot him, it's a travesty
Suckers keep on suckin' while they're crushin' and you know it
So smoke 'em if you got 'em 'cause that cloud of yours is killing me
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm just looking out for number one (Looking out for number one)
I'm just looking out for number one (Looking out for number one)
Move it up or move it out
Move it up or move it out
It's my way, my way, my way
And I really don't care what you say
Looking out for number one

[Chorus]
Well, we used to believe in the hope and the dream
Then they hit you with their lies, hit you with their lies
When they turn you away and there's nothing to say
Well, they've cut you down to size, we see it in your eyes

[Guitar Solo]

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm just looking out for number one (Looking out for number one)
I'm just looking out for number one (Looking out for number one)
I'm just looking out for number one (Looking out for number one)
Number one

[Chorus]
Well, we used to believe in the hope and the dream
Then they hit you with their lies, hit you with their lies
When they turn you away and there's nothing to say
Well, they've cut you down to size, we see it in your eyes
Well, we used to believe in the hope and the dream
Then they hit you with their lies, they'll bust you up inside
When they turn you away and there's nothing to say
Well, they've cut you down to size, we see it in your eyes

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
