"Lookin' for a Good Time" is an up-tempo in which the narrators — a male and a female — explain their plans to have a
one-night stand with each other, because they are "just lookin' for a good time". The radio edit replaces a line in the second verse ("Would you get the wrong impression / If I called us a cab right now" was changed to "…if I stood up and danced right now").Reception
