The Cold Sting

Yeah.
Bought the ring
Tutti Frutti
Five-karat bling.

Toast a brew
We had a drink
Big scandal grew
Felt the cold sting.

Face tabloid news
Waiting till spring.
Winter time choose 
A Double will fling.

Blue Gucci shoes
Songbird can sing.
Ten years gone past
Didn't mean a thing.

Whole Truth
Without spin
Both lose
Nobody wins.
