Lyrics:

[English]

I'm gettin' sad alone

Dancing with myself

Greedy go-getter goal

the luxury of stealth

I'm seedy and the whole,

dancing with myself

I get into my bed

I do it to myself

To the local,

To the lo-o-o, I go out

To the local

By myself

To the local

I did it to my head

There's nothing to be addressed now

There's nothing to get up about

Cause we do it all the time

The shepherd is undone

She done it all again

I get ready to go

The greed go-getter con

He going to the local

O-ohh

He going to the local

To many western men

It's a problem left undone

Imperious the sign

The papers of luxury

A greedy go-getter in the skybox

She run alone

She get ready to go

She does it with herself

She does it on her own
