They Don't Own Me - Richard Ashcroft

Is it true what they say?

Nothing in life is free

Are you looking this way

Surely this can’t be

I know that you

Ain’t like the other ones

March to a different beat, babe

Banging a different drum

I think I told you before that

They don’t

They don’t own me

I think I told you before that

They don’t

They don’t own me

I ain’t playing their games

I am nobody’s fool

Yeah, I know how it feels

I broke those rules

Are you walking with me?

Or are you running with them?

Are you ever free?

Is this something that you understand?

I think I told you before that

They don’t

They don’t own me

I think I told you before that

They don’t

They don’t own me

They don’t

They don’t own me

Is it really that strange

To try and find some peace?

Is it so opaque

That you still can’t see?

Them, right up above

I wonder what they can hear

I guess we all mess up, baby

Mmm, we’re here, then disappear

I think I told you before that

They don’t

They don’t own me

I think I told you before that

They don’t

They don’t own me

I think I told you before that

They don’t

They don’t own me

I think I told you before, yeah

They don’t

They don’t own me
