Go ahead and look at me 
'Cause that's what I want 
Take a good look won't you please 
'Cause that's what I want 

I know you wanna stare 
You can't help it and I don't care 
So look at me 
'Cause that's what I want 

Do you think I'm looking hot? 
Do you think this hits the spot? 
I was just looking at me, look at me 

Do you think I'm looking hot? 
Do you think this hits the spot? 
I was just looking at me, look at me 

Go ahead and stare
And take a picture please
If you need
Anything that says it all

(Love, love, love, love)

Chasing it, I don't know why 
I think about it a lot 
Better hurry, running out of time 
I think about it a lot 

I can't tell anymore 
I don't know what I'm looking for 
You know what I need 
I think about it a lot 

Do you think I'm looking hot? 
Do you think this hits the spot? 
I was just looking at me, look at me 

Do you think I'm looking hot? 
Do you think this hits the spot? 
I was just looking at me, look at me 

Go ahead and stare
And take a picture please
If you need
Anything that says it all

Running on empty but I have had plenty 
You're complimentary, but I'm just pretending 
Uniform, hide behind there, this is my diversion 
Go ahead and stare on my ragamuffin

Feeling so flaking, I dated you take it
When I'm in the mirror, put on my veneer 
I coulda sworn, it's a sure shot 
Are you under my convoy
Go ahead stare I'm a ragamuffin

(Love, love, love, love)
(Love, love, love)
(Love, love, love, love)

Do you think I'm looking hot? 
Do you think this hits the spot? 
I was just looking at me, look at me 

Do you think I'm looking hot? 
Do you think this hits the spot? 
I was just looking at me, look at me 

Go ahead and stare 
And take a picture please, if you need 
Anything that says it all

Do you think I'm looking hot? 
Do you think this hits the spot? 
I was just looking at me, look at me 

Do you think I'm looking hot? 
Do you think this hits the spot? 
I was just looking at me, look at me 

Do you think I'm looking hot? 
Do you think I'm looking hot? 
Do you think I'm looking hot? 

(Love, love, love, love)
(Love, love, love)
(Love, love, love, love)
