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.)
