You can palm-mute if you feel like it, but if you do so, there aren't the breakouts into clean power chords as in the verses above.) A pair of heels, now she's standing taller A tiny dress and she's got what they wanted Sayin' "Whoops! There's another one down to the middle of the night." No turning back, now it's ten on the dollar He doesn't care that they sold and they bought her He's sayin' "Whoops! There's another one down to the middle of the night."
