"Pay through the nose" in lyrics
Sohodolls - Here She Comes (Emmeline)
I've got love for it
If it's young, if it's male, if it's strong and fit
Say, how much is it
For the stallion, I will pay you through the nose for it (oh-oh)
Forever and ever more.
Said: 'You pay through the nose′
′For counsul and the clothes that you wore'
Devastated they don′t really give a damn
As you wait around for someone to do it all for you
You know they gonna make you pay through the nose
On a very rare occasions that they do
if loving is sin only one night
To understand you would pay through the nose
I'm ready, but I don't look for sponsor
