‘lookin’ sharp lookin’ for love’

Clean shirt, new shoes
     And I don’t know where I am goin’ to
          Silk suit, black tie,
               I don’t need a rea­son why
                         They come run­nin’ just as fast as they can
                                   ’Cause every girl crazy ’bout a sharp dressed man

Gold watch, di­a­mond ring,
     I ain’t missin’ not a sin­gle thing
          Cuf­flinks, stick pin,
               When I step out I’m gonna do you in
                    They come run­nin’ just as fast as they can
                                   ’Cause every girl crazy ’bout a sharp dressed man

Top coat, top hat,
     And I don’t wor­ry ’cause my wallet’s fat
          Black shades, white gloves,
               Lookin’ sharp lookin’ for love
                          They come run­nin’ just as fast as they can
                                   ’Cause every girl crazy ’bout a sharp dressed man
 

but

          the way he de­scribes what he’s wear­ing in that song, 

                         it sounds like he’s a magician, 

                                   and girls aren’t crazy about that at all.
