Verse 2:
You don't need a lawyer
When you're in a fix
Someone gets the payoff
You're friends are full of tricks
Happiness is something
That you just can't find
Own up to the truth girl
You're living with your mind
Chorus 2:
Sugar daddy brings you flowers
You just hang him up and
Keep him waiting there for hours
And you should see the look on his face
As you slide down the rail
