Lori Meyers used to live upstairs

Our parents had been friends for years

Almost every afternoon we'd play forbidden games

At nine years old there's no such shame

It wasn't recognition of her face, what brought me back
G E
was a familiar mark As it flashed across the screen
Am F
I bought some magazines, some video tape scenes

Incriminating acts, I felt that I could save
(Same for second verse)
"Who the hell are you to tell me how to live?
You think I sell my body; I merely sell my time.
I ain't no Cinderella, I ain't waiting for no prince,
To save me in fact until just now I was doing just fine.
And on and on.."
"I know what degradation feels like
I felt it on the floor at the factory
Where I worked long before, I took control now I answer to me
The 50K I make this year will go anywhere I please
Where's the problem?"
