Lyric

Yeah, here we go again

Up, up! The tab is blowing up!

Looking at this blinding receipt in the light

Let's break out from this endless night, hold my heart!

When I booked you in the VIP room

I remembered when ten bucks meant a lot, what a gloom

Can you slow down on the drinks you pour?

On this winding road of booze and cash, you just ordered more!

Sometimes I just wanna sneak out the back door

But with my love, my pride, and courage, I'll pay for sure!

Up, up! The tab is blowing up!

The hope of this world, I just want my change back

I pretend I don't care about your sales track

But the tally marks just keep on growing

Let's escape this endless billing, hold your hand!

I love your tipsy smile and your sleepy eyes

But when you call that Uber, my poor heart cries

Dragged to an after-party, feeling sea-bass blue

Wait, isn't the service charge included in the cover too?

I just wanted to have a happy time tonight

But these random shot trays are blocking my light

Thinking of my wallet, losing the fight!

Up, up! The tab is blowing up!

It's so weird, but I just gotta ask you why

Is the waiter asking "Can I get a drink?" What a guy!

No, no! Pretending I don't care at all

But in the end, I'm always answering your call

Is a receipt with no itemized breakdown okay? Hold my hand!

Wait, isn't the tax supposed to be included?

This tea and ice are way too expensive for this quality!

Are you even allowed to charge a credit card fee?

Are you not even gonna pretend to reach for your purse?!
