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 yea yea yea.
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. 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, hitting a spot for the big time, baby. Get dressed for success shaping it up for your love.
We used to go out walking hand in hand You told me all the big things you had planned It wasn′t long till all your dreams came true Success put me in second place with you
You have no time to love me anymore Since fame and fortune knocked up on our door And i spend all my evenings all alone Success has made a failure of our home
If we could share an evening now and then I′m sure we′d find true happiness again You never hold me like you used to do Oh, it′s funny what success has done to you
You have no time to love me anymore Since fame and fortune knocked up on our door And i spend all my evenings all alone Success has made a failure of our home Success has made a failure of our home
