Painted parade, a slave to the trade,can't sleep in the bed that you've made |
|
Daddy was wrong, you could have been strong,but you've been alone far too long |
|
You'll never be pure, yes madam, yes siryou've always obeyed, to be sure |
|
Feet to the fire, they call you a liarthis cannot be what you desire |
|
Council the weak, they think you're a freak,a future that's hopelessly bleak |
|
Confused by success, your life is a mess,yet they can convince you you're blessed |
|
Don't come with me, |
|
I won't set you free,'cause that's not where you need to be |
|
And no, I'm not confused, although you're abused, |
|
I see it's this life that you choose |
|
Painted parade, a slave to the trade,can't sleep in the bed that you've made |
|
Daddy was wrong, you could have been strong,but you've been alone far too long |
|
You'll never be pure, yes madam, yes siryou've always obeyed, to be sure |
|
Feet to the fire, they call you a liarthis cannot be what you want |
