Drag: The Musical - Drag Is Expensive Lyrics


The song is written by Alaska Thunderfuck, Ashley Gordon, and Tomas Costanza.

(Verse 1:)
Well, let me tell you brother
Drag is expensive
You know it don't run cheap
To be excessive
You gotta spend that coin

And cover up that groin, girl

Money comes and goes

And then we steal the show

Drag is expensive

(Pre-Chorus:)
Who needs money when we've got the look
Crunch a couple numbers, get me off the hook
The bank is calling but I look so rich
It takes a lot of money to run this bitch!

(Chorus:)
Oh, oh, oh
Drag is expensive
Oh, oh, oh
Drag is expensive

(spoken:)
You know,
I've been doing this for years
and Mr Lipschitz says all of these expenses can be written off

Who's Mr Lipschitz?

He's Dolly's uncle's second cousin's accountant friend

Bitch, he dead

Oh my god, I'm so sorry

(Verse 2:)
Let me tell you honey
Drag is expensive
But from head to toe
It's an investment
My world is fabulous
It's diva-fantaculous
It's worth the glossy lips

And all the padded hips

Drag is expensive

Woah!
Who needs money when we've got the look
A little bit of plastic and a solid tuck
I may be shallow and my (?)
It takes me (forty minutes?) to look this cheap!

(Chorus:)
Oh, oh, oh
Drag is expensive
Oh, oh, oh
Drag is expensive

(Spoken:)
Okay, but you do understand that there's no way
that you're going to make rent this month, right

Well, that's why the good Lord done make sugar daddies, okay

Halleluiah!

(Verse 3:)
Take a good look, handsome
This mug is flawless
And these leather boots
No they ain't from no Payless
My closet is designer
I sign checks with eyeliner
Rent is three months late
Drag is expensive

(Pre-Chorus:)
Who needs money when we got the look
Cooking fried chicken and I'm cooking the books
Nobody tells me how to spend my cash
It takes a lot of money to get this ass!

(Chorus:)
Oh, oh, oh
Drag is expensive
Oh, oh, oh
Drag is expensive

(spoken:)
Look, you need to stop this routine right now
and take a look at these numbers

You know, Tom, you are being such a... A...

A drag

Wow. Good one girl

Let me tell you brother
Drag is expensive
You let your budget go
Do you even know what overhead is?
You gotta save that coin
You gotta bring more bread in
Money comes and goes until you end up broke
With all the cash you owe you're gonna sink this boat
And the numbers show you owe:

Well, that doesn't look so bad

Move your thumb

Aaaaaah!

(Chorus:)
Oh, oh, oh
Drag is expensive
Oh, oh, oh
Drag is expensive
Oh, oh, oh

Don't say I didn't warn you!

Oh, oh, oh

Some people never learn

Oh, oh, oh
Drag is expensive
