It’s Not What You Think (Jett Jackson Theme) Lyrics

[Intro: Lee Thompson Young]
Well saving is the game
Silverstone is the name
Secret Agent Status

[Verse 1]
Day starts early and he's on the move
He has to have breakfast in his dressing room
Knock, knock 5 minutes to chew
Go to make up then it's time to hear
Take 1, take 2 everybody's telling him what to do
It's a great big price to pay to be the man
So listen to what I have to say

[Hook]
It's not what you think when you see him roll
In the limo down the street baby, you should know
That everything that glitters, it ain't gold
(he's the famous Jett Jackson)

It's not what you think cause when he's all alone
Reminisces 'bout the past and he finds himself
Trying to go back home

(he's the famous Jett Jackson)

[Post-Hook]
He thinks about what he used to be back home
Everything was quiet, nothing really going on
Talking to his peeps on the telephone
Now his life has changed nothing is the same
He took it to the next level, now he's gotta keep it all together
[Hook]
It's not what you think when you see him roll
In the limo down the street baby, you should know
That everything that glitters, it ain't gold
(he's the famous Jett Jackson)
It's not what you think cause when he's all alone
Reminisces 'bout the past and he finds himself
Trying to go back home
(he's the famous Jett Jackson)

[Verse 2]
Silverstone is the code name
And if saving the world was a basketball game
Only the stakes were higher
The only difference between me and MJ would be that I haven't yet retired
(still in the game)

Articles and track team the way that I inspire
Villains and thugs for hire to run like somebody set their socks on fire
Evil doers know by now to say, "aww man he's cocked his eyebrow
This cat's about to say goodbye now find a place to lie down
Duck and cover cause he's sharper than a diamond cutter
Slicker than a stick of butter"
But even the best of the best can't work alone
So as far as sidekicks go Hawk's is one of the nicest and
Artimus supplies us with expensive and high-tech devices

But in comparison, my lop-sided grin is still priceless
The best secret agent that mankind knows, it's no mystery
[Hook]
It's not what you think when you see him roll
In the limo down the street baby, you should know
That everything that glitters, it ain't gold
(he's the famous Jett Jackson)
It's not what you think cause when he's all alone
Reminisces 'bout the past and he finds himself
Trying to go back home
(he's the famous Jett Jackson)

[Hook]
It's not what you think when you see him roll
In the limo down the street baby, you should know
That everything that glitters, it ain't gold
(he's the famous Jett Jackson)
It's not what you think cause when he's all alone
Reminisces 'bout the past and he finds himself
Trying to go back home
(he's the famous Jett Jackson)
