This a great tune about the vanity of going after a pretty face. Women and men who flaunt themselves mainly on their looks don’t have much to offer in a relationship because they don’t work on the inside.
I Love Tina Turner! She’s my kind of gal; a wildcat. She’s not into pretty boys. Just because they look good doesn’t mean they’re going to know their way around YOUR VIBE!
It is hard to find a real man…on the inside.
What You Get Is What You See
Some boys got the look of a Greek Adonis
Some boys try to talk you off your feet
Some boys they’re gods gift to a woman
Some boys think they’re sweet enough to eat
Try to change the habit of a lifetime
Don’t even try
Cause when you cut down deeper than the icing
You realize
Some boys try to talk you off your feet
Some boys they’re gods gift to a woman
Some boys think they’re sweet enough to eat
Try to change the habit of a lifetime
Don’t even try
Cause when you cut down deeper than the icing
You realize
What you get is what you see
Ain’t nothing more to it
And if you want to love a woman like me
It takes a man to do it
If what you get is what you see
Then I don’t want your kind of love
Ain’t nothing more to it
And if you want to love a woman like me
It takes a man to do it
If what you get is what you see
Then I don’t want your kind of love
Some guys got lips that you can’t help kissing
And some guys got a smile you can’t resist
Some guys gotta build a reputation
They just want to add you to the list
You got a lot of physical attraction
I can’t deny
But can you guarantee me satisfaction
While I’m still waiting, waiting, waiting
And some guys got a smile you can’t resist
Some guys gotta build a reputation
They just want to add you to the list
You got a lot of physical attraction
I can’t deny
But can you guarantee me satisfaction
While I’m still waiting, waiting, waiting
What you get is what you see
Ain’t nothing more to it
And if you want to love a woman like me
It takes a man to do it
If what you get is what you see
Then I don’t want your kind of love
Ain’t nothing more to it
And if you want to love a woman like me
It takes a man to do it
If what you get is what you see
Then I don’t want your kind of love
So let me see your cards on the table
Before I buy
I always read the writing on the label
So give me a reason to believe there’s more to you than meets the eye
Before I buy
I always read the writing on the label
So give me a reason to believe there’s more to you than meets the eye
