Lyrics

You've known her for exactly ten minutes
But she's the one you adore
You'll pay any price
To get your foot in the door
So you reach for your wallet like a deputy for his gun
You'll spend yourself blind but keep in mind
You're not the only one
If you don't believe what you've just been told

Stand back and watch the red carpet unfold
Stand back, watch the red carpet unfold
It might be new to you
But it's been that way since she was 21 years old

You say she's beautiful inside
But how could you tell?
You're Pavlov's dog
Howling at Pavlov's belle
You're lookin' for love but you'll accept a dollarationship
I'm willin' to bet the best you'll get is a tolerationship
If you don't believe what you've just been told

Stand back and watch the red carpet unfold
Stand back, watch the red carpet unfold
It might be new to you
But it's been that way since she was 21 years old
Stand back, watch the red carpet unfold

Everybody wants her
But you can't surmise
You're nothin' but a sponsor
And she's nobody's prize
You've created a monster
And she's moneywise!

Stand back and watch the red carpet unfold
Stand back, watch the red carpet unfold
It might be new to you
But it's been that way since she was 21 years old
Stand back, watch the red carpet unfold
