In an L.A. high-brow dark bar
Sits another washed-up rockstar
Seeking refuge in the arms of a woman
Old enough to be her father
Keeps gripping her leg harder
And I hope that she knows what she's doing
Like a magpie hoarding shiny things
A pretty girl, a diamond ring
How long till he trades you in?
How long till he trades you in?
So be his symbol of youth, ah
Be the ace in his arsenal
Be his token of proof that
He's still loved by the beautiful
Let him peacock his feathers
Don't bat an eye at the cash he spends
So that you'rะต seen together
So that he can feel young again
And it's just how wะต've been wired
Taught that a man's desire
Is the only currency
We own
Like a magpie hoarding shiny things
A pretty girl, a diamond ring
How long till he trades you in
How long till he trades you in
So be his symbol of youth, ah
Be the ace in his arsenal
Be his token of proof that
He's still loved by the beautiful
Let him peacock his feathers
Don't bat an eye at the cash he spends
So that you're seen together
So that he can feel young again
Ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Sits another washed-up rockstar
Seeking refuge in the arms of a woman
Old enough to be her father
Keeps gripping her leg harder
And I hope that she knows what she's doing
Like a magpie hoarding shiny things
A pretty girl, a diamond ring
How long till he trades you in?
How long till he trades you in?
So be his symbol of youth, ah
Be the ace in his arsenal
Be his token of proof that
He's still loved by the beautiful
Let him peacock his feathers
Don't bat an eye at the cash he spends
So that you'rะต seen together
So that he can feel young again
And it's just how wะต've been wired
Taught that a man's desire
Is the only currency
We own
Like a magpie hoarding shiny things
A pretty girl, a diamond ring
How long till he trades you in
How long till he trades you in
So be his symbol of youth, ah
Be the ace in his arsenal
Be his token of proof that
He's still loved by the beautiful
Let him peacock his feathers
Don't bat an eye at the cash he spends
So that you're seen together
So that he can feel young again
Ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
