[Verse 1]
Take a bow, pack on powder
Wash them out with buzzing lights
Pay an audience to care
"Impress me" personality
[Pre-Chorus 1]

Come one, come all
Into 1984
Yeah, three, two, one
Lights, camera, transaction
[Outro]
Your foundation is canyoning
Fault lines should be worn with pride
I hate to say so much more

Endearing with the sound turned off
