|
I won't let you down
|
I will not give you up
|
Gotta have some faith in the sound
|
It's the one good thing that I've got
|
I won't let you down
|
So please don't give me up
|
Because I would really, really love to stick around
|
|
Heaven knows I was just a young boy
|
Didn't know what I wanted to be
|
I was every little hungry schoolgirl's pride and joy
|
And I guess it was enough for me
|
To win the race? A prettier face!
|
Brand new clothes and a big fat place
|
On your rock and roll TV
|
But today the way I play the game is not the same
|
No way
|
Think I'm gonna get myself happy
|
|
I think there's something you should know
|
I think it's time I told you so
|
There's something deep inside of me
|
There's someone else I've got to be
|
Take back your picture in a frame
|
Take back your singing in the rain
|
I just hope you understand
|
Sometimes the clothes do not make the man
|
|
All we have to do now
|
Is take these lies and make them true somehow
|
All we have to see
|
Is that I don't belong to you
|
And you don't belong to me
|
Freedom
|
You've gotta give for what you take
|
Freedom
|
You've gotta give for what you take
|
|
Heaven knows we sure had some fun boy
|
What a kick just a buddy and me
|
We had every big shot good-time band on the run boy
|
We were living in a fantasy
|
We won the race
|
Got out of the place
|
I went back home got a brand new face
|
For the boys on MTV
|
But today the way I play the game has got to change
|
Oh yeah
|
Now I'm gonna get myself happy
|
|
I think there's something you should know
|
I think it's time I stopped the show
|
There's something deep inside of me
|
There's someone I forgot to be
|
Take back your picture in a frame
|
Don't think that I'll be back again
|
I just hope you understand
|
Sometimes the clothes do not make the man
|
|
All we have to do now
|
Is take these lies and make them true somehow
|
All we have to see
|
Is that I don't belong to you
|
And you don't belong to me
|
Freedom
|
You've gotta give for what you take
|
Freedom
|
You've gotta give for what you take
|
|
Well it looks like the road to heaven
|
But it feels like the road to hell
|
When I knew which side my bread was buttered
|
I took the knife as well
|
Posing for another picture
|
Everybody's got to sell
|
But when you shake your ass
|
They notice fast
|
And some mistakes were built to last
|
|
That's what you get
|
I say that's what you get
|
That's what you get for changing your mind
|
|
And after all this time
|
I just hope you understand
|
Sometimes the clothes
|
Do not make the man
|
|
I'll hold on to my freedom
|
May not be what you want from me
|
Just the way it's got to be
|
Lose the face now
|
I've got to live
|
