It’s not what you look like, when you’re doin´ what you’re doin. 
It’s what you’re doin´ when you’re doin´ what you look like you’re doin´! 
Express Yourself! 
Some people have everything, and other people don’t. 
But everything don’t mean a thing if it ain´t the thing you want. 
Express Yourself! 
What ever you do, do it good. 
What ever you do, do do doo-o, do it good. All right… 
Express Yourself! 
Express Yourself!
