lyrics

Some people move to the left now
Some people move to the right
Some people keep their hearts in their hand's all night
Some people go for the bottle
Some people go for the spoon
Some people call their souls to a halt too soon

Working on their self image
Trying to get a little self image
Working on their self image
Trying to get a little self image

Put a shine on your shirt
Now polish your pants
Crease in your shoes
Start singing the blues
Now go look for romance

Working on your self image
Trying to get a little self image
Working on your self image
Trying to get a little self image

Ooh, she gave me something to believe
She gave me something to hold at night
Make me feel alright
It's nothing I've never known
I saved it up, she threw it away
I can't believe that we're here today
I still recall the times we tried
She says now what's it to your

Yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah

Working on your self image
Trying to get a little self image
Working on your self image
Trying to get a little self image

Working on it
Self image
Trying to get a little self image
Working on your self image
Trying to get a little self image
Working on your self image
Trying to get a little self image
Self Image
