    Is She Really Going Out With Him lyrics:
    Pretty women out walking with gorillas down my street
    From my window I'm staring while my coffee goes cold
    Look over there (where?)
    There, there's a lady that I used to know
    She's married now, or engaged, or something, so I am told
    Is she really going out with him?
    Is she really gonna take him home tonight?
    Is she really going out with him?
    'Cause if my eyes don't deceive me
    There's something going wrong around here
    Tonight's the night when I go to all the parties down my street
    I wash my hair and I kid myself I look real smooth
    Look over there (where?)
    There, here comes Jeanie with her new boyfriend
    They say that looks don't count for much
    If so, there goes your proof
    Is she really going out with him?
    Is she really gonna take him home tonight?
    Is she really going out with him?
    'Cause if my eyes don't deceive me
    There's something going wrong around here
    Around here
    But if looks could kill
    There's a man there who's more down as dead
    'Cause I've had my fill
    Listen you, take your hands from her head
    I get so mean around this scene
    Hey, hey, hey
    Is she really going out with him?
    Is she really gonna take him home tonight?
    Is she really going out with him?
    'Cause if my eyes don't deceive me
    There's something going wrong around here
    Around here
    Something going wrong around here
    Something going wrong around here
    Something going wrong around here
    Something going wrong around here
    Written by Joe Jackson

    Joe Jackson official bio:
    Joe Jackson was born on August 11, 1954 in Burton-on-Trent, England, but grew up in the South Coast naval port city of Portsmouth. A skinny, asthmatic kid, he loved books and originally wanted to be a writer. At age 11, though, he joined a school violin class in order to escape the humiliation of Sports periods in which it was very often him, rather than the ball, which got kicked. Much to his own surprise, he found himself fascinated by music and eagerly studying music theory and history.
    A couple of years later, Joe had switched to the piano, mainly because of his new ambition: to be a composer. His first efforts were pieces for piano and small groups of instruments. Within a few more years, though, he was writing songs, and leaning more towards the pop world.
    At age 18 Joe won a scholarship to study Composition, Piano, and Percussion at London's Royal Academy of Music. By the time he left the Academy, he was the co-leader and songwriter of Arms and Legs, a proto-punk outfit which released two singles on the MAM label before burning out somewhere around 1976.
    By 1978 Joe was living in London and hawking an album-length demo, with his own band standing by. That demo-already called Look Sharp-eventually found its way to American producer David Kershenbaum, who was in London in the capacity of talent scout for A&M Records. Joe was immediately signed and Look Sharp professionally re-recorded in August '78. The Joe Jackson Band finally started to play regular gigs and the album was released in January 1979.
