Love For Sale
Trudy Pitts & Mr.C Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Of your loyalty?
How 'bout a life
Payed with royalties?
I can sell anything
All of your vanities
From leftist over rightist propaganda
To anarchy
Crack me open see if there's a god inside
Will you stick to your role?
All you do is repaint that facade of mine
When will I lose control?
I lose control
So you're claiming a will of your own
Free to choose, still bound to consume
Watch me sell Marx to your commie friends
Fake-meat to your vegan friends
Progress? to me it's just trends
Crack me open see if there's a god inside
Will you stick to your role?
All you do is repaint that facade of mine
When will I lose control?
I lose control
For Sale
God for sale
Crack me open see if there's a god inside
Will you stick to your role?
All you do is repaint that facade of mine
When will I lose control?
Crack me open see if there's a god inside
Will you stick to your role?
All you did was repaint that facade of mine
Yet still I'm in control
I'm in control
