[Verse 1]
She was born on a Brighton pier
To a gypsy mother and a bucket of tears
Her good looks coulda sailed a ship
But her will alone coulda sunk it
Funny thing about money for sex
You might get rich, but you die by it

[Chorus]
Close call
It's gonna be a close call

[Verse 2]
Tell me now, what would you do
Hangin' back with the brutes
Hustle and pickpocket
That's no way to get rich

[Chorus]
Close call
It's gonna be a close call
It's gonna be a close call
And it's gonna be a close call

[Post-Chorus]
It's gonna be a close call
It's gonna be a close call
[Verse 3]
Businesswoman with good sense
If you live it all, you're gonna die by it

[Chorus]
Close call
It's gonna be a close call
It's gonna be a close call
It's gonna be a close call

In this world [?]
