The Rules Of The Market

"We like your music" he said
"And we're gonna make a star of you
Of course we know you can sing and play
But you dress like an undertaker, that's for sure
We thought you'd look better with a mini-skirt on
And maybe a pink bra? Or maybe a black one?"
If this is a nightmare, I thought?
When do I wake up?

I don't care, I don't care
What you want me to be
I am me, I am me
I'm not a pawn in your game you see
You don't seem to understand my claim
There's no way for me to be another product for sale
Another product for sale
Another product for sale

"And I suppose you know The Rules Of The Market?
People want to understand what the lyrics are about
And of course it'd be a great artistic challenge
So would you please and try and use
Your mother tongue somehow"
I can swear like the French, I thought
But instead left them with their vile business chat

I don't care, I don't care
What you want me to be
I am me, I am me
I'm not a pawn in your game you see
You don't seem to understand my claim
There's no way for me to be another product for sale

I don't care, I don't care
What you want me to be
I am me, I am me
I'm not a pawn in your game you see
You don't seem to understand my claim
There's no way for me to be another product for sale

I don't care, I don't care
What you want me to be
I am me, I am me
I'm not a pawn in your game you see
You don't seem to understand my claim
There's no way for me to be another product for sale
Another product for sale
Another product for sale
