    (At the top?)

    Lipstick junkie
    Debunked the all in one
    She came back wearing a smile

    Looking like someone drugged me
    That wanted to unplug me
    No one here is on trial
    It's just a turnaround
    And we go, oh
    Well, then we go uh, uh, uh, uh

    Tick-tock, I want to rock you like the '80s
    Cock blocking isn't allowed

    Tugboat Sheila is into memorabilia
    Who said three is a crowd
    We better get it on the go

    Hey now
    We've got to make it rain somehow
    She told me to
    And showed me what to do
    How Maggie makes it in her cloud

    I said, hey now
    We've got to make it rain somehow
    She told me to
    And showed me what to do
    She knows how to make it loud

    Rain dance Maggie
    Advances to the final
    Who knew that she had the goods

    Little did I know
    Her body was one delicious vinyl
    To your neck of the woods
    I want to lick a little bit

    Hey now
    We've got to make it rain somehow
    She told me to
    And showed me what to do
    How Maggie makes it in her cloud

    We've got the wrong girl
    But not for long, girl
    It's in the song, girl
    'Cause I'll be gone, girl

    Hey now
    We've got to make it rain somehow
    She told me to
    And showed me what to do
    How Maggie makes it in her cloud

    I said, hey now
    I want to rock this rowdy crowd
    She told me to
    And showed me what to do
    She knows how to make it loud

    But not for long, girl
    It's in the song, girl
    'Cause I'll be gone, bye-bye-bye, yeah
    Bye-bye-bye, girl

    Bye-bye, girl
    Bye-bye, girl
