The debut single from Welsh singer-songwriter Jemma Griffiths, also known as Jem. The song samples a 1963 vocal version of Bach’s Prelude in F minor, and its music video pays homage to the film Barbarella. The song topped an airplay chart in Hungary and reached #6 in Jem’s native UK in 2005.
[Verse 1]
Who made up all the rules?
We follow them like fools
Believe them to be true
Don't care to think them through
[Chorus]
And I'm sorry, so sorry
I'm sorry, it's like this
I'm sorry, so sorry
I'm sorry, we do this
[Verse 2]
And it's ironic too
Cause what we tend to do
Is act on what they say
And then it is that way
[Chorus]
And I'm sorry, so sorry
I'm sorry, it's like this
I'm sorry, so sorry
I'm sorry, we do this
[Verse 3]
And who are they?
And where are they?
And how can they possibly know all this?
And who are they?
And where are they?
And how can they possibly know all this?
[Bridge]
Do you see what I see?
Why do we live like this?
Is it because it's true
That ignorance is bliss?
[Verse 4]
And who are they?
And where are they?
And how can they know all this?
I'm sorry, so sorry
I'm sorry, it's like this
[Bridge]
Do you see what I see?
Why do we live like this?
Is it because it's true
That ignorance is bliss?
[Verse 4]
And who are they?
And where are they?
And how can they know all this?
I'm sorry, so sorry
I'm sorry, we do this
