Yeah, I've seen you face in magazines Yeah I've read all of those press room queens descriptions I can't believe the lies they tell But truth is not the way to sell subscriptions
After all the smoke had cleared away Did not take me long to find out what you had to say This is just a game And I'm glad i finally learned to play By the rules Do they think we're fools
They put you down behind my back Distorting all the honest facts about you While searching through your lyric sheets For secret meanings too discreet to doubt you
Isn't it a shame they never heard They finally wrote you off as really being too absurd While all the time you sacrificed your rhymes To find a word they could not see Hidden in your melodies
Like a tree that could bend with the wind Like a river that flows around the bend Like a dream Like a song They all cross right or wrong They just keep on building castles in the sand
Then just like you they told me lies And offered corporate alibis to change me My songs were taken through the mill While managers were hired to rearrange me
They led me to the slaughter like a lamb I just kept pretending that I did not give a damn Now this situations gotten too far out of hand To be real I don't wanna make a deal
Parasites reach for your heart Each one must try do their part to drain you You give them your best autograph On pictures knowing well they're gonna frame you
Don't you know it happens every time Little did they know I could read between the line You told them times were changing But they did not heed the signs I'm not that green Bobby do you know what I mean
I'm Like a tree that can bend with the wind I'm like a river that flows around the bend I'm like a dream Like a song That I've crossed right or wrong And I'll just keep on building castles in the sand
They drove me in their limousines My pockets bursting at the seems with money They said i could take your place By putting makeup on my face like honey
Now don't you know it chilled me to the bone They even had the nerve to ask me if i could re-write like a rolling stone Thats when I told they the should leave my ass alone Its plan to see I just wanted to be free
Like a tree that can bend with the wind Like a river that flows around the bend Like a dream Like a song That I cross right or wrong And I'll just keep on building castles in the sand
And every song i write my friend I play it with my bandTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
