lyrics

Lookin' just lookin' is a humorous look at the personal "lonely hearts" ads, although the composer invented the actual adverts in this song, to avoid possible late-night phone calls…! The personalities advertising for the loves of their lives in this song range in age from 24 to 92, they are all very genuine people, please don't hurt their feelings as you snigger!

Young man, twenty four,
lookin' for a soul mate:
slim dark handsome versatile.


Who will answer?
Will it be the man of my dreams?
Will he be the one,
will he write to me,
will he like my style,
will we get on?

Looking, just looking
at the personal ads,
can we find true love?
Are they the people
waiting only for us?
Waiting for a letter,
waiting for a letter,
looking, looking.


Kindly lady, thirty eight,
cuddly butch and lively,
likes a laugh and country walks.

Who will answer?
Will it be the girl of my dreams?
Will she be the one,
will she write to me,
will she like my style,
will we get on?

[Chorus]

Leather wearing, fifty four,
into whips and bondage:
genuine answers only, please!

Who will answer,
will it be the whip of my dreams?
Will he be the one,
will he write to me,
will he like my style,
will we get on?

[Chorus]

Grey panther ninety two,
into older women,
cuddle to my Zimmerframe,

Who will answer,
will it be the crutch of my dreams?
Will she be the one,
will she write to me,
will she like my style,
will we get on?

[Chorus]
