Dressed for Success Lyrics

Yeah Yeah Yeah

Tried to make it little by little
Tried to make it bit by bit on my own

Quit the job
The grey believers
Another town where I get close to the bone

Whatcha gonna tell your brother?
Oh Oh Oh
Whatcha gonna tell your father?
I don't know!
Whatcha gonna tell your mother?
Let me go...

I'm gonna get dressed for success
Shaping me up for the big time, baby
Get dressed for success
Shaping it up for your love

No No No

Yeah Yeah Yeah

I'm not afraid
A trembling flower
I'll feed your heart and blow the dust from your eyes
And in the dark things happen faster
I love the way you sway your hips next to mine

See Roxette Live

Get tickets as low as $88

Whatcha gonna tell your brother?
Oh Oh Oh
Whatcha gonna tell your father?
I don't know!
Whatcha gonna tell your mother?
Let me go...

I'm gonna get dressed for success
Shaping me up for the big time baby
Get dressed for success
Shaping it up for your love

LOOK SHARP!

Yeah Yeah Yeah

Whatcha gonna tell your brother?
Oh Oh Oh
Whatcha gonna tell your father?
I don't know!
Whatcha gonna tell your mother?
Let me go...

Dressed for success

I'm gonna get dressed for success

I'm gonna get dressed for success
Hitting a spot for the big time, baby
Get dressed for success, shaping it up for your love

For your love
Yeah Yeah Yeah

For your love
Yeah Yeah Yeah

For your love
Yeah Yeah Yeah

For your love
Yeah Yeah Yeah
