If I wear the right clothes
if I comb the right hair
if I shine the right shoes
if I pray the right prayer
if I sing the right song
if I kiss the right way
will you love me tomorrow
like I love you today

will you still see me
will you still see me
will you still see me
as you want me

If I drink the right drink
if I smoke the right brand
if I walk with a swagger
if I shake the right hand
if I pop the right pill
if I stay up all night
will you still hang around
to make morning's alright

will you still see me
will you still see me
will you still see me
as you want me

I've grown blind from the swagger
that came over me
when you returned a smile
with a backdoor key

If I don't grow old
if I still look the same
if I lay down to die
and call out your name
if I hold my temper
if I run in place
if I do it quietly
will you recognize my face

will you still see me
will you still see me
will you still see me
as you want me
