Background
The background appears to be a wrecked alley with a yellow sky. The coaches travel through the alley. Tall and crumbling buildings appear in the distance with graffiti patterns and has drawings of the coaches. Clones of P1 and P3 appear, but with a different color scheme. While moving forward, they enter a shady area with a beam of sunlight popping in. The three coaches continue upwards to a wall where more clones of P1 and P3 appear with more beams of light. The clones hold a stick and look at the coaches at the end of each line. After arriving at the top, the wall opens. It opens to a bigger area to a pillar in the middle with scaffolding. Women can be seen holding the same stick and moving it to the beat of the song. On each side more scaffolding appear along the walls and the beams of light. Later in the chorus, more scaffolding rise where more women (including the Extreme Version's coach) appear.
