The Price Tag

Jessie J - Price Tag ft. B.o.B.

Okay, Coconut Man, Moonheads, and P. You ready!

Seems like everybody's got a price
I wonder how they sleep at night
When the sale comes first
And the truth comes second
Just stop for a minute and smile

Why is everybody so serious?
Acting so damn mysterious
Got your shades on your eyes
And your heels so high
That you can't even have a good time

Everybody look to the left (yeah)
Everybody look to the right
Can you feel that (yeah)
We'll pay them with love tonight

It's not about the money, money, money
We don't need your money, money, money
We just wanna make the world dance
Forget about the price tag

Ain't about the (ha) cha-ching cha-ching
Ain't about the (yeah) ba-bling ba-bling
Wanna make the world dance
Forget about the price tag

(Okay)
We need to take it back in time
When music made us all unite!
And it wasn't low blows and video hoes,
Am I the only one gettin' tired?

Why is everybody so obsessed?
Money can't buy us happiness
Can we all slow down and enjoy right now
Guarantee we'll be feelin'
All right

Everybody look to the left (to the left)
Everybody look to the right (to the right)
Can you feel that (yeah)
We'll pay them with love tonight...

It's not about the money, money, money
We don't need your money, money, money
We just wanna make the world dance,
Forget about the price tag

Ain't about the (ha) Cha-Ching Cha-Ching.
Ain't about the (yeah) Ba-Bling Ba-Bling
Wanna make the world dance
Forget about the price tag

[B.o.B Rap]
Yeah yeah
Well, keep the price tag
And take the cash back
Just give me six streams and a half stack
And you can keep the cars
Leave me the garage
And all I...
Yes all I need are keys and guitars
And guess what, in 30 seconds I'm leaving to Mars
Yes we leaping across these undefeatable odds
It's like this man, you can't put a price on the life
We do this for the love so we fight and sacrifice every night
So we ain't gon' stumble and fall, never
Waiting to see us in a sign of defeat? Uh-uh
So we gon' keep everyone moving their feet
So bring back the beat and then everyone sing

It's not about the money, money, money
We don't need your money, money, money
We just wanna make the world dance,
Forget about the price tag

Ain't about the (ha) Cha-Ching Cha-Ching.
Ain't about the (yeah) Ba-Bling Ba-Bling
Wanna make the world dance,
Forget about the price tag.

It's not about the money, money, money
We don't need your money, money, money
We just wanna make the world dance,
Forget about the price tag

Ain't about the (yeah-yeah) Cha-Ching Cha-Ching.
Ain't about the (whoo!) Ba-Bling Ba-Bling
Wanna make the world dance,
Forget about the price tag.

Yeah yeah
Oo-oooh
Forget about the price tag

Past Perfect Simple

The past perfect simple expresses an action taking place before a certain time in the past.

Form of Past Perfect Simple

	Positive	Negative	Question
no differences	I had spoken.	I had not spoken.	Had I spoken?

For irregular verbs, use the past participle form . For regular verbs, just add ed.

Exceptions in Spelling when Adding ed

Exceptions in Spelling when Adding ed	Example
after final e, only add d	love – loved
final consonant after a short, stressed vowel or l as final consonant after a vowel is doubled	admit – admitted travel – travelled
final y after a consonant becomes i	hurry – hurried

Use of Past Perfect

• action taking place before a certain time in the past (putting emphasis only on the fact, not the duration)

Example: Before I came here, I had spoken to Jack.

• Conditional Sentences Type III (condition that was not given in the past)

Example: If I had seen him, I would have talked to him.

Signal Words

already, just, never, not yet, once, until that day (with reference to the past, not the present)

The Imperative Form

You can use the imperative form to give an order, a warning, or some advice.
To form the imperative, use the infinitive form of the verb without "to". To make a negative imperative, put "do not" or "don't" in front of the verb, as in, "Don't speak!"

Affirmative	Negative
Come here	Don't cross the street
Go there	Don't say that
Open the door	Don't be late
Turn on the TV	Don't fight
Sit down	Don’t go

The imperative is formed the same for all subjects (you, he, we, they), but you can include yourself in the imperative by adding "Let's," as in, "Let's go for a swim".

Affirmative	Negative
Let's work!	Let’s not work!
Let's make a party!	Let's not make a party!
Let's go!	Let's not go!
Let's play!	Let's not play!
Let's go home!	Let's not go home!
