😂😂😂 I'm still Queen of the Closing! No sick to clear up this time either so nice and easy..

Honey, you are very, very close with your theme guess, maybe cut your guess in half...

Here's another lyric which also fits it though..

She take my money when I'm in need
Yeah, she's a triflin' friend indeed

Is it gold digger by kayne west?
NeedToKnow101 · 17/01/2022 23:20

Correct to Blur, Rogue.
That's sad about Hazel O'Connor. Hope she's ok

Hello and welcome- you’ve got the right band, but not the right song.
