Opening Lyrics:
You ready?
I wonder how they sleep at night
When the sale comes first and the truth comes second
Just stop for a minute and smile
Why is everybody so serious?
Acting so damn mysterious
Got shades on your eyes and your heels so high
That you can’t even have a good time
Everybody look to their right
Can you feel that? Yeah
We’re paying with love tonight
