What You See Is What You Get

Boy: Ain’t no hidden treasure in this pot of gold you see
Ain’t no way for you to make no silky purse outta me
Girl: Well, I’m never ever gonna change your ways—I’ll take you as you are
But you got something that I want, and that’s one way to go

Both: What you see is what you get
And you ain’t seen nothing yet
What you see is what you get
And you ain’t seen nothing yet

Boy: Yeah, I told you that I loved ya, right from the very start
Now don’t you make me sorry girl, that I open up my heart
Girl: Well, I know that I’m no angel, this ain’t my first time out
But you can count on what I’ve got, and what I’ve got’s a lot—don’t you know:

Both: What you see is what you get
And you ain’t seen nothing yet (baby baby baby)
What you see is what you get
And you ain’t seen nothing yet (how ya doin’ now?)

Girl: When it’s cold I want it hot
I’ve always wanted what it’s not
But when it comes to loving you
I’m yours no matter what you do

Boy: Oh, you’re my baby and I’m your man
This is not an angel’s plan
Girl: You’re not too skinny, not too fat
Loving you is where it’s at

Both: What you see is what you get
And you ain’t seen nothing yet (baby baby baby)
What you see is what you get
And you ain’t seen nothing yet …

The Way You Do the Things You Do

Girl: Honey there’s something I’ve got to say to you
Oh I know I haven’t told you before
But it wasn’t until the other night
When you told me you loved me
That I felt that I should tell you this

You got a smile so bright
You know, you could have been a candle
You’re holding me so tight
You know, you could have been a handle

Boy: The way you swept me off my feet
You know, you could have been a broom
The way you smell so sweet
You know, you could have been some perfume

Both: Well, you could have been
Anything that you wanted to
Girl:And I can tell
Boy:The way you do the things you do
(the way you do the things you do)

Boy: As pretty as you are
You know, you could have been a flower
If good looks caused a minute
Oh, you could have been an hour

Girl: The way you stole my heart
You know, you could have been a cool crook
And baby, you’re so smart (baby you’re so smart)
You know, you could have been a school book

Both: Well, you could have been
Anything that you wanted to
Girl:And I can tell
Boy:The way you do the things you do
(the way you do the things you do)

Girl: You made my life so rich
You know, you could have been some money
And baby, you’re so sweet
You know, you should have been some honey

Boy: The way you stole my heart
You know, you could have been a cool crook
And baby, you’re so smart (baby you’re so smart)
You know, you could have been a school book

Both: Well, you could have been
Anything that you wanted to
Girl:And I can tell
Boy:The way you do the things you do
(the way you do the things you do)

Girl:The way you swept me off my feet
Boy:Oh, life is complete
Girl:You make my life so bright
Boy:Oh, you’re gonna feel all right
Girl:The way you swept me off my feet …
