Work ourselves, fingers to the bone
Suck the marrow, drain my soul
Pay your dues, and your debts
Pay your respects, everybody tells you
You pay for what you get
You pay for what you get
Everybody asks me how she's doing
Has she really lost her mind?
I said that I couldn't tell you i've lost mine
Words, words, words have you heard
A bird in hand is much better than
Any number free to wander
Fly away...
Stay
You pay for what you get
You pay for what you get
Everybody asks me how she's doing
Is she really all she says...
Everybody asks me how she's doing
Since she went away
I said that I couldn't tell you
I'm okay
I'm okay
Surprise surprise
You pay for what you get
You pay for what you get
Everybody asks me how she's doing
Has she really lost her...
Everybody asks me how she's doing
Since she went away
I said that I couldn't tell you
I'm okay
I'm okay
I'm okay, how are you?
Pay for what you get...
Pay for what you get...oh...
Pay for what you get...
Pay for what you get oh...
Oh...
