I worked hard, but not for the money
I did my best to please
I used to think it was funny
'Til I realized it was all a tease, hey
Don Quixote had his windmills
Ponce De Leon took his cruise
It took Sinbad seven voyages
To see that it was just a ruse
That's why I'm looking for
The next best thing
Looking for the next best thing
I appreciate the best
But I'm settling for less
I'm looking for the next best thing, yeah
All alone on the road to perfection
At the inspеction booth, they
Tried to discourage mе, yeah
You can believe what you want, yeah
That'll never change it
You'll have to come around eventually
You'll be looking for the next best thing
Looking for the next best thing
I appreciate the best, I'm settling for less
(Oh) i'm looking for the next best thing
Hey i'm looking for the next best thing
(Looking for the next best thing)
I'm looking for the next best thing
(Looking for the next best thing)
Have you seen any women 'round here? Ah hoo
(Looking for the next best thing)
I'm looking for the next best thing
(Looking for the next best thing) yes, I am
Is everybody rocking out now? yeah? How
'bout out there on the
Street? On radio? Rocking out there?
I said can you hear
Me out there? yeah, woo this is just an old
Sweet song, just an old, sweet song
Old song of mine
Gonna do it here we just gon' do
It 'til we get tired of it
