You think it's so hard for you
You moan about the things you do
We'll it's gonna get a little bit harder
'Cause this train can't go no farther
Since the day you came on the scene
I've been treating you like my queen
Spending my money just to make you smile
I give an inch but you take a mile
Well baby I been thinking
And I don't wanna be your saviour anymore
I ain't gonna get you what you want
I'm here to tell you that it's not ok
I'm not your meal ticket sucka just to pay your way
You never really cared for friends
Little more than a means to the end
You won't be happy 'till they call you famous
Your attitude is entirely shameless
Now I realise my mistake
You never give you just take take take
Whether money or imagination
We're all figures in your calculation
I don't wanna be your saviour anymore
I ain't gonna get you what you want
I'm here to tell you that you're on your own
I'm not your lapdog, woman and I'm telling you
I don't wanna be your saviour anymore
I don't wanna be your saviour anymore
Think you struggle like the rest of us
You really think that you do it tough
Well you should try a bit of nine to five
Where the measure of your life
Is a pay check
Just enough to pay the rent
We're all thinking in dollars and cents
But when you get it on a silver plate
I know you can't appreciate
That I don't wanna be your saviour anymore
I ain't gonna take you to the top
I'm here to tell you that you're on your own
I'm not your cash cow, woman and I'm telling you
Don't wanna be your saviour anymore
I ain't gonna open every door
You better listen to me when I say
You're a gold digger honey and it stops today
Saviour anymore
Don't wanna be your saviour anymore
Ain't gonna be your saviour anymore
I don't wanna see you no more
Sister, I ain't your penny packin' daddy
Lover, can you hear me sayin'
I don't wanna be your saviour anymore
Don't be a saviour anymore
Ain't gonna be your saviour anymore

Well yeah! If you're interested, the vocal was "double-tracked" (recorded twice, overlapping), and then run through a vocoder/autotune for the effect. It sounds different but Wally did it so blame him if you don't like it! Haha.
