    Easy V doesn’t come for free, she’s a real lady
    And as for me, ha-ha, you’ll see

    Basically they’re walking you through what you gotta do to please each one of them. Baby wants the lingus, Ginger and Scary by contrast like to give oral, Posh of course want you to buy her expensive stuff first, and only then do you prove yourself worthy of Sporty.
