I remember when you said you cared

And that you would never be ensnared

By the mortgage and the 9 to 5

Dumb existence in the human hive

So was that really all just a pose?

Your beliefs no deeper than your clothes?

Come on then - prove me wrong

I should've never had to write this song

Turned your back on your old life

Does everyone really have their price?

What about all the things for which we fought?

Are we all so easily bought?

Do you remember when you said you cared

And that you would never be ensnared

By the lure of the music biz

'Cos you were doing it all "for the kids"

Now that just seems like so many hollow lies

You've become what you said you despised

We can see from the dancefloor

Those you opposed, you now work for
