'loveometer'
Love doesn't pay the bills
Neither does it make the meals
Love is real but currency changes how we feel
About moving up emotional hills
Resulting to cautious gearing of our love wheels
The 'LoveOmeter' level changes
By accelerating through our purses
So are other charges
Renewing the engine oil
We now crave love that currency decides
By shaming Tony Montana
For Mary Kay's creation
Our ability to buy more gains us attention
Alas! We built on falsehood
Many have strayed from our mothers' ways
Where currency doesn't decide the movement of their 'LoveOmeter'
Panties are voodoo into German four wheels
The love that currency decide is a sham that birth emotional ills
