Lyrics :p


Chloe Lin, what you gonna do? (eh, eh)
Got ten thousand, swiped it like a pro (woah)
Makeup, cash, you steal all you can (yeah)
Claim you're real, but it's all just a show
From Wharton halls, you walk like a queen (oh)
But your crown's just another fake Shein

Chloe Lin, where's the trust you lost?
Everything's got a price, but at what cost?
Stabbing backs with a smile, it's your style
Chloe Lin, you keep running wild

Playing sweet, charming all the guys (ah)
But it's games, games, always in disguise (yea)
With the squad of influencers, feeling gold
Yet the truth, girl, it's getting so old (woah)
Gossip queen, smile as you shade (huh?)
Chloe Lin, your friends are just afraid

Chloe Lin, where's the trust you lost?
Everything's got a price, but at what cost?
Stabbing backs with a smile, it's your style
Chloe Lin, you keep running wild

Victim play when confronted, it's your game
Acting innocent, but you hold the blame
Running, hiding, from truths you eschew (hey)
Oh Chloe Lin, we see right through you

Chloe Lin, where's the trust you lost?
Everything's got a price, but at what cost?
Stabbing backs with a smile, it's your style
Chloe Lin, you keep running wild

Let's get things kicked off with the trial of Diddy coming to an end as we were recording.  Should we be surprised? We have the Bezos wedding come and gone over the weekend.  Fun to see billionaires enjoy their money.  We look at the recent Peter Thiel interview as well as confusion on small government.  Stepping away from that kind of madness Nate visits the recent news on Kardashian surgeries. We then find our way into the world of darts and rugby. Mostly because Sam left the two unattended for a bit.  Stay safe out there and we'll get back to you next week.
