Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Everybody's out for the money, running around
Talk about yourself all the time, getting me down
Think about the needs of the many, out of sight, out of mind
Gotta get ahead, turn my back, leave you behind
[Verse 2]
Point blank, take a leap
Pressure play it as it lays
You get too heavy for me
Everyone you meet, you bow to their feet
[Verse 3]
You're a status clinger nice to meet you
Who do you know, where do you go?
You're a status clinger now I see you
I can't take it
You're a social climber, status clinger
Looking through you, nothing to see
You're a social climber status clinger
I can't take it anymore
[Verse 4]
Have you seen her, have you seen him, have you seen them
I don't know
Better think it over, better look out, I gotta go
Escalator, elevator, but in front of the line
Gotta get ahead, turn my back
Just a matter of time
[Verse 5]
Straight up, take a leap
The buzz is out, it's out on the street
Pressure too heavy for me
Everyone I meet seems to agree
[Verse 6]
Party parasite
Hanging around, bothering me
Transparent user
Looking through you, nothing to see
Manipulating loser
What do you have, what's in it for me?
[Verse 7]
You're a status clinger nice to meet you
Who do you know, where do you go?
You're a status clinger now I see you
I can't take it
You're a social climber status clinger
Looking through you, nothing to see
You're a social climber status clinger
I can't take it
I can't take it anymore
