Ryan:
It started as a night like no other, so free,
In the heart of Montreal, just Saskia and me.
Walking down the streets, oh, the girls we’d meet,
Decided on Stereo, where the bass and synths beat.
Saskia:
We dressed to kill, aiming for a thrill,
Fancy drinks in hand, oh, what a delightful chill.
Inside the club, it was a neon dream,
But then I met Gigi, oh what a scheme!
(Chorus)
Saskia:
Oh, Gigi, you’re a tease, you’re a dream, you’re a queen,
You had that angelic face, but your soul was so mean.
Gigi, you took it all, left me high and dry,
In that stall, with no line, just a tear in my eye.
Ryan:
Saskia met some girls, offering more than thrills,
Eyes glittering bright, they handed us bizarre pills.
Saskia, looking determined, said, 'I need more than that',
And so our journey led where shadows sat.
Saskia:
In the powder room, I saw Gigi stand tall,
A model clone, I thought, ‘This girl has it all.’
I asked, ‘Can I borrow a bill,’ eager and spry,
She smiled and said, ‘Sure thing, don’t be shy.’
(Chorus)
Oh, Gigi, you’re a tease, you’re a dream, you’re a queen,
You had that angelic face, but your soul was so mean.
Gigi, you took it all, left me high and dry,
In that stall, with no line, just a tear in my eye.
Saskia:
She snorted three fat lines, I watched in awe,
My $20 gone, vanished in her maw.
'Hey, what about me?' I asked with hope,
But she laughed and left, my shoulders did droop.
Ryan:
We stumbled out, still vibrant from the night,
Laughing at the chaos, we knew it wasn’t right.
Saskia learned a lesson in that neon glare,
Gigi, you tricked her, but we didn’t care!
(Chorus)
Oh, Gigi, you’re a tease, you’re a dream, you’re a queen,
You had that angelic face, but your soul was so mean.
Gigi, you took it all, left me high and dry,
In that stall, with no line, just a tear in my eye.
Outro
Saskia:
So here's to nights where the wildness flows,
Where every twist and turn, the spontaneity grows.
I’ll remember Gigi, and that infamous stall,
But Montreal, you’re the wildest of all.
Both:
Oh, Gigi, you’re a tease, you’re a dream, you’re a queen,
But Montreal's nights, they remain evergreen.
Gigi, you took it all, left her high and dry,
In that stall, with no line, but hey – we’re still flying high!
