Lyrics

[Verse 1]

So here we are, driftin' on an open sea

So here we are, for all we know

And, then again, we know

For all we know

I know, I know

[Verse 2]

With all the power that I possess

Let's match their money with our own finesse

Why should we ever have to settle for less?

Why does this message always have to be

[Verse 3]

S.O.S. (S.O.S., S.O.S.)

S.O.S. (S.O.S., S.O.S.)

S.O.S. (S.O.S., S.O.S.)

One cool million for one cool caress

[Verse 4]

So here we are, still driftin' on an open sea

So here we are, for all we know

And, then again, we know

For all we know

I know, I know

[Verse 5]

With all the power that I possess

Let's match their money with our own finesse

Why should we ever have to settle for less?

Why does this message always have to be

[Verse 6]

S.O.S. (S.O.S., S.O.S.)

S.O.S. (S.O.S., S.O.S.)

S.O.S. (S.O.S., S.O.S.)

One cool million for one so possessed

[Verse 7]

(S.O.S., S.O.S.)

(S.O.S., S.O.S.)

[Verse 8]

S.O.S (S.O.S., S.O.S.)

S.O.S (S.O.S., S.O.S.)

S.O.S (S.O.S., S.O.S.)

S.O.S (S.O.S., S.O.S.)

S.O.S (S.O.S., S.O.S.)

S.O.S (S.O.S., S.O.S.)

(S.O.S., S.O.S, S.O.S.)
