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
'Cause I would really, really love to stick around, oh yeah
Heaven knows I was just a young boy
Didn't know what I wanted to be (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 (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 (rock and roll TV)
But today the way I play the game is not the same, no way
Think I'm gonna get me some 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, yeah yeah (freedom)
I won't let you down (freedom)
I will not give you up (freedom)
Gotta have some faith in the sound (you gotta give what you take)
It's the one good thing that I've got (freedom)
I won't let you down (freedom)
So please don't give me up (freedom)
'Cause I would really, really love to stick around (you gotta give what you take)
Heaven knows we sure had some fun, boy
What a kick! Just a buddy and me (what a kick, just a buddy and me)
We had every big-shot goodtime band on the run boy
We were living in a fantasy (we were living in a fantasy)
We won the race, got out of the place
Went back home, got a brand new face
For the boys in MTV (boys in 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 else I've got 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, yeah yeah (freedom)
I won't let you down (freedom)
I will not give you up (freedom)
Gotta have some faith in the sound (you gotta give what you take)
It's the one good thing that I've got (freedom)
And I won't let you down (freedom)
So please don't give me up (freedom)
'Cause I would really-really love to stick around (you gotta give what you take)
Well it looks like you're going to heaven
But it feels like you're going 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 share
But when you shake your ass
They notice fast
And some mistakes were built to last
That's what you get
That's what you get
That's what you get
I say that's what you get
I said that's what you get for changing your mind
(That's what you get for changing your mind)
That's what you get
That's what you get
I say that's what you get
That's what you get
And 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, yeah yeah (freedom)
Oh (freedom)
(Freedom)
You gotta give what you take, yeah yeah
(Freedom)
Oh my (freedom)
Hold on to my (freedom)
You gotta give what you take (what you take)
Yeah, oo-ho
Thank you, thanks, now
Yeah
You gotta give what, to give what you take...
