sold me out

Singer:davies, ray

i always knew that they'd get me somehow sooner or later

but with a bullet in the head

a knife in the back

not a pocket calculator

sorry mister

you're all wiped up

you're all washed up

sold you out

got no dreams

got no ambition

can't decide

'cause there's no decision

got no claim to any position

can't compete with the competition

you're always complaining

it's so depressing

but if you're old enough

start to confess it

you say

you sold me out

to get a better deal for yourself

you sold me out

and now we want some of your precious wealth

because you sold me out

sold me out

sold me out

sold me out

you sold me out

to get a better deal for yourself

you sold me out

and now it's every man for himself

work all your life

put the money in the bank

sign on the dotted line

try to draw it out

the joke's on you

put up the empty sign

sorry mister

we're all sold out

sold me out

sold me out

sold me out

sold me out

you

i'm talkin' to you

you sold me out

to get a better deal for yourself

you sold me out

and now we want some of your precious wealth

and sell you out

like you sold me out

are you in so deep

that you can't get out?

got no dreams

got no ambition

can't decide

'cause there's no decision

got no claim to any position

can't compete with the competition

sold me out
