Oingo Boingo - Not My Slave lyrics

And joy in my mind

I thought about the ghosts that we left behind

With everyone around telling us what to do

With deafening sounds whisper I love you

With fire in your eyes may it never go out

The sweetness of your tears make it feel like night

I see no escape to the rolls we always play

What do we have to do on this judgment day

You're mine now

But you're not my sister

You're mine now

But you're not my slave

You're mine now

But you're not my child

You're mine now

But you're not my slave

You're missing the whole point

You're not my little pet

Don't throw away your life

The game's not over yet

I do not own your soul

Don't want you in a cage

I only want your heart

To find a special place

You're missing the whole point

You're not my little pet

Don't throw away your life

The game's not over

You're mine

But you're not my sister

You're mine now

But you're not my slave

You're mine

But you're not my child

You're mine now

But you're not my slave

You're mine now

But you're not my slave

With sand in my heart

And clouds in my head

I thought about us both and the life we led

From pages in a book

And pictures on a screen

We make ourselves like clay from someone else's dream

One second you are cast just like stones at my feet

But I am not a king

Please don't worship me

With everyone around telling us what to do

With deafening sounds whisper I love you

You're missing the whole point

You're not my little pet

Don't throw away your life

The game's not over yet

I do not own your soul

Don't want you in a cage

I only want your heart

To find a special place

You're mine

Oooo but you're not my slave

You're mine

Oooo but you're not my slave

You're mine now

But you're not my sister

You're mine now

But you're not my slave

You're mine now

But you're not my child

You're mine now

But you're not my slave

You're mine now

But you're not my sister

You're mine now

But you're not my slave

You're mine

But you're not my child

You're mine now

But you're not my slave

You're mine you're mine now

But you're not my slave

You're mine

Oooo but you're not my slave
