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 |
Oh yeah |
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 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 |
You've gotta give for what you take |
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 |
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 |
Bridge: |

That's what you get, that's what you get |
I say that's what you get, that's what you get |
That's what you get for changing your mind |
That's what you get |
That's what you get (And after all this time) |
I just hope you understand |
Sometimes the clothes |
Do not make the man |
