Heaven knows I was just a young boy
Didn′t know what I wanted to be
I was every little hungry schoolgirl's pride and joyAnd I guess it was enough for me
To win the race a prettier face
Brand new clothes and a big fat place on your rock and roll TV
Today the way I play the game is not the same, no way
I think I′m gonna get me some happy
I think there's something you should know
(I think it's time I told you so)
There′s something deep inside of me
(There′s someone else I've got to be)
Take back your picture in a frame
(Take back your singing in the rain)
I just hope you understand
Sometimes the clothes do not make the man
All we have to do now
Is take these lies and make them true somehow
All we have to see is that I don′t belong to you
And you don't belong to me, yeah
(Freedom) I won′t let you down
(Freedom) I will not give you up
(Freedom) gotta have some faith
Gonna have some faith in the sound
Heaven knows we sure had some fun, boy
What a kick just a buddy and me
We had every big-shot, good-time band on the run, boy
We were living in a fantasy (ooh yeah)
We won the race, got out of the place
Went back home, got a brand new face for the boys on MTV
But today the way I play the game has got to change, oh yeah
Now I'm gonna get me some happy
I think there′s something you should know
(I think it's time I stopped the show)
There's something deep inside of me
(There′s someone I forgot to be)
Take back your picture in a frame
(Don′t think that I'll be back again)
I just hope you understand
Sometimes the clothes do not make the man
All we have to do now
Is take these lies and make them true somehow
All we have to see is that I don′t belong to you
And you don't belong to me, yeah
(Freedom) I won′t let you down
(Freedom) I will not give you up
(Freedom) gotta have some faith
Gonna have some faith in the sound
I think there's something you should know
(I think it′s time I told you so)
There's something deep inside of me
(There's someone else I′ve got to be)
Take back your picture in a frame
(Take back your singing in the rain)
I just hope you understand
Sometimes the clothes do not make the man
(Eh, eh, eh, eh, eh) oh
(Eh, eh, eh, eh, eh) I will not let you down
(Eh, eh, eh, eh, eh)
Eh, eh, eh, eh
(Freedom, freedom) freedom, freedom
(Gotta have some faith in the sound)
Have some faith in the sound, oh (freedom, freedom)
(Freedom) freedom, hey yeah
(All we have to do now) oh, we can do
(Is take these lies) and make them true (somehow)
(All we have to see) oh (is that I don′t belong to you) freedom
(And you don't belong to me) freedom
I won′t let you down, I will not give you up
Gotta have some faith in the sound
It's the one good thing that I′ve got
I won't let you down, I will not give you up
It′s the one good thing that I've got
