In the darkness of night, huh
All the stage lights are shining bright
Hey, And we work very hard to make you stay, Raah!
But it aint no thing yââ?¬â?¢all
ââ?¬Ë?Cause I know that you can hang
Weââ?¬â?¢re not too expensive but you got to pay, Raah!

Some say that money is the root of all evil
Itââ?¬â?¢s not the love but the lust of it that makes men greedy, ooh
And you say, ââ?¬Å?You wanna go for a ride? You gotta pay the fare!ââ?¬
