"Temptation" a song by Tom Waits performed by VKB BAND

The band says about the video produced for the release of the track “Temptation”

In this tongue-in-cheek cheeky video, VKB tackles and taunts the tawdry, tacky, and tasteless manifestations of today’s temptations. What are we being sold as consumers of culture? Cupcakes and cheap shots, princess myths and the ever-elusive big winning, hyper-sex, sugar shock, bright lights, billionaire status; as much as we well know it’s all nonsense, our shadow selves can’t help but be tempted and tickled by the deliciously toxic pretty pictures every little once in a while.

Song text of "Temptation":

Rusted brandy in a diamond glass
Everything is made from dreams
Time is made from honey slow and sweet
Only the fools know what it means
Temptation, temptation, temptation, I can't resist
Well I know that he is made of smoke
But I've lost my way
He knows that I am broke
But I must pay, yeah
Temptation, ooooh temptation, temptation, I can't resist
Dutch pink and Italian blue
He is there waiting for you
My will has disappeared
Now confusion is oh so clear
Temptation, temptation, temptation
I can't resist
Temptation, temptation, temptation
I can't resist
