Lookin' Out for #1 Lyrics


They always told me I must try to be like everyone in the nation
Go with the flow, remember me is we, there must be no deviation
Well, now I think that I'll go my own way, I've got my own point of view
I just don't care what other people say, I do what I want to do
You know that I'm ready, I'm ready to rock
You know that I'm ready, I'm ready to rock
Gonna rockI'm lookin' out for number one (number one)
I'm lookin' out for number one (number one)
I'm lookin' out for number one (number one)
I'm lookin' out for number one (number one)The time has come for you to make a stand, you've got to do things your own way
Forget about the style, forget the brand, 'cause every dog has his own day
It doesn't matter what the others think, what counts is do you like you
You think you're drownin' but you'll never sink, just do what you want to do
You better get ready, get ready to rock
You better get ready, get ready to rock
Gotta rockYou know that we're ready, we're ready to rock
You know that we're ready, we're ready to rock
Gotta rock

Twisted Sister is an American heavy metal band from Long Island popularized in comedic music videos on the television channel MTV in the 1980s. Although formed as a Bowie-inspired rock band by guitar player Jay Jay French in 1973, the band's style shifted to a more heavy metal-influenced sound when Dee Snider joined the band and took over songwriting.

They fused the shock tactics of Alice Cooper and W.A.S.P., the rebellious mood of the New Wave of British Heavy Metal, the style of early Judas Priest, and the extravagant makeup of Kiss. Often misconceived as glam - the makeup and Dee's especially was more transformed into a horror creation, and the music is a lot more hard hitting, with rebellious or angry or violent or rock n roll or pride lyrics than love or happy lyrics. However, the band's fifth album, Love Is For Suckers - originally intended by Dee Snider to be a solo record - was plain heavy metal but drew heavy influence from 80's glam metal. To this day, members of the band do not feel Love Is For Suckers to be a Twisted Sister album.

The group's hit songs include "We're Not Gonna Take It" and "I Wanna Rock" - each from the band's third album Stay Hungry. Many of the band's hits theme around parent vs. child conflicts and criticisms against educational system. The group had a shock rock-like image and have been mislabelled as glam metal but musically they were closer to classic heavy metal bands such as Judas Priest and Motörhead than the other glam metal/pop metal bands of the era, for example Quiet Riot, Poison and Ratt.

Their hit song S.M.F. should also not be forgotten.(Sick Mother Fucker)
