Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The sun shines and people forget
The spray flies as the speedboat glides
And people forget
Forget they're hiding
[Verse 2]
The girls smile and people forget
The snow packs as the skier tracks
And people forget
Forget they're hiding
[Verse 3]
Behind an eminence front
Eminence front, it's a put on
It's an eminence front
It's an eminence front, it's a put on
[Verse 4]
An eminence front
It's eminence front, it's a put on
Eminence front
It's an eminence front
It's an eminence front, it's a put on
It's a put on, it's a put on, it's a put on
[Verse 5]
Come and join the party, dress to kill
Won't you come and join the party?
Dress to kill, dress to kill
[Verse 6]
Drinks flow, people forget
That big wheel spins, the hair thins
People forget
Forget they're hiding
[Verse 7]
The news slows, people forget
Their shares crash, hopes are dashed
People forget
Forget they're hiding
[Verse 8]
Behind an eminence front
An eminence front, it's a put on
It's just an eminence front
An eminence front, it's a put on
[Verse 9]
An eminence front
An eminence front, it's a put on
Eminence front
It's an eminence front, it's a put on
It's a put on, it's a put on, it's a put on
[Verse 10]
Come and join the party, dress to
Come and join the party, dress to
Come and join the party, dress to
Come and join the party, dress to kill
Dress yourself to kill
