BOY GEORGE - Sold lyrics

Last night mym other said to me: I'm sick of making history

There's got to be another way, but we've got all these bills to pay

And they ain't just gonna go away, like a factory about to be shut down

Another factory about to be shut down

Sold - Did you hear it? I'm sold!

Sold - Did you hear it? I'm sold!

Sold - Did you hear it? I'm sold!

Sold - Did you hear it? I'm sold!

You're gonna like this one, you're gonna like this one? - I do!

See if Mr. Botha was a man he'd tip the hat, he'd pass the can

But he don't talk for you and me, I saw him on the BBC

His eyes looked like a factory about to be shut down

His eyes looked like a factory with the lights out about to be shut down

Sold - Did you hear it? I'm sold! ....

Last night my mother said to me: I'm sick of making history

There's got to be another way for you to be

Last night my mother said to me: when you grow up what will you be?

If not the white minority at least protect me

I'm not a factory that's about to be shut down

Sold - Did you hear it? I'm sold! ....

There's got to be a better way to be than this?
