You don't own me Don't hang around You don't own me no more
You don't own me Don't hang around, honey You don't own me no more
You made your bed and now you're trying to hide it You made a bed of nails
Although you pinned me down I never tried to fight it You had me on the rails
And now your snakeskin colours are flying You're trying to hide your poison disguise So wipe the crocodile tears that are falling They only make me realise
You don't own me, don't hang around You don't own me no more Oh, you don't own me, don't hang around, honey You don't own me no more
I can read the lines, the lines your face is showing They say your time has come And every single line your evil heart is scheming Ain't gonna fool no-one
I'm gonna turn my back on the wild side And take my rainfall way into the sun Across the plains of a new horizon Don't say goodbye, I'm already gone And in the dreams of your fantasy love world You tore the hole right out of your life And got a one-way ticket to nowhere And now at last I realise
You don't own me, don't hang around You don't own me no more Oh, you don't own me, don't hang around, honey
You don't own me no more You don't own me, don't hang around You don't own me no more
Oh, you don't own me, don't hang around, honey You don't own me no more Oh, you don't own me, don't hang around You don't own me no more Oh, you don't own me, don't hang around honey You don't own me no more Oh, you don't own me no more....
