Look at Me
Tommy-T Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm not the guy who cared about love
And I'm not the guy who cared about fortunes and such
I never cared much
Oh, look at me now!

I never knew the technique of kissing
I never knew the thrill I could get from your touch
I never knew much

Oh, look at me now!

I'm a new man better than casanova at his best
With a new heart and a brand new start
Why I'm so proud I'm bustin' my vest

So I'm the guy who turned out a lover
Yes I'm the guy who laughed at those blue diamond rings
One of those things
Oh, look at me now!

I'm not the guy who cared about love
And I'm not the guy who cared about fortunes and such
I never cared much
Oh, look at me now!

And I never knew the technique of kissing
I never knew the thrill I could get form your touch
I never knew much
Oh, look at me now!

I'm a new man better than casanova at his very best
With a new heart and a brand new start
I'm so proud I'm bustin' my vest

So I'm the guy who turned out a lover
Yes I'm the guy who laughed at those blue diamond rings
One of those things

Oh, look at me now!
Look at me now!

Overall Meaning

The song "Look at me now" by Tommy-T is a celebration of personal transformation and growth. In the lyrics, the singer describes how he had never cared about love or material wealth, and had never really experienced the joys of physical intimacy. However, he has now undergone a significant change, and is proud of the person he has become. He now knows the technique of kissing and the thrill of being touched by someone he loves. He has a new heart and a brand new start, and feels like he is now better than Casanova at his very best.

The chorus of the song repeats the phrase "look at me now" several times, creating a sense of triumph and self-assuredness. The singer is almost incredulous at the change that has occurred within him, and is eager to show off his new identity to the world.

Overall, the song is a powerful anthem of personal growth and development, and would be inspiring to anyone who has undergone a similar transformation in their own life.

Line by Line Meaning

I'm not the guy who cared about love
I never considered love as a significant part of my life

And I'm not the guy who cared about fortunes and such
Material wealth was never a primary measure of success for me

I never cared much
I didn't think about the things I was missing out on

Oh, look at me now!
I have changed my mindset and attitude towards life, and I'm proud of where I am now

I never knew the technique of kissing
I lacked experience in the art of kissing

I never knew the thrill I could get from your touch
I didn't know the excitement I could feel from physical affection

I never knew much
There was a lot I didn't realize about the beauty of love and affection

I'm a new man better than casanova at his best
I've transformed myself into a better lover than even the great Casanova himself

With a new heart and a brand new start
I have a refreshed outlook on life and a new beginning

Why I'm so proud I'm bustin' my vest
I'm extremely proud of my accomplishments and who I've become

So I'm the guy who turned out a lover
I've grown into a person who values and cherishes love and affection

Yes I'm the guy who laughed at those blue diamond rings
I used to make fun of people who put too much emphasis on material possessions

One of those things
That was just one part of my past, and I've moved on

Oh, look at me now!
Once again, I'm proud of the person I've become and my journey to get here

Look at me now!
A final exclamation of pride towards personal growth

I remember the day before my first 6th grade basketball a teacher (who worked in the sports department) came and told all the basketball girls to come with her but silently. I was sitting by the door so she grabbed me then we got the other ones by being like “(insert name) come here”. The teacher took us so we could get our jerseys and try them on. We went back to class and it was math so ofc we missed a lot. It didn’t help that there’s only one smart person at my table.
