You were the sharpest and you were the best,
Stronger and faster, exceptionally dressed, (I knew you then, I was your friend)
You were growing and learning the tricks of your trade,
Well on your way now to having it made. (no longer friends, I can't comprehend)

I know that your meter is running and life is expensive today...but not knowing love in your life is a small price to pay. (got to follow on and on)

Following a fashion,
Big dollar and passion in your eyes, (there's nothing you can't buy)
Following a fashion,
Time is money, cash and compromise. (you're much too strong to cry)

You make your mark in a big business way,
Cash flow is good at midnight and midday, (the targets are primed, goals achieved in good time)
Now you're a big man, you're setting the trends,
And a minimum cost means a maximum end. (how does it feel to be a mastermind')

I know that your meter is running and life is expensive today...but not knowing love in your life is a small price to pay. (got to follow on and on)

Following a fashion,
Big dollar and passion in your eyes, (there's nothing you can't buy)
Following a fashion,
Time is money, cash and compromise. (you're much too strong to cry)

Whoa.

Got to follow on and on, and on, and on...
Got to follow on and on, and on, and on...
Got to follow on and on.

Following a fashion,
Big dollar and passion in your eyes, (there's no one you can't buy)
Following a fashion,
Time is money, cash and compromise. (you're much too strong to cry)

Following a fashion.
