Don't You Dare
Don't
you
dare!
Don't
you
dare!
You're swimming in money
Money, which was all made by others
You call all girls "Honey"
And you don't care about their mothers
You hang around soulless
Eager to be part of all you're not
To you we're just dollars
Except for the ones who are real hot
Don't
you
dare!
Hey, you big effin' fraud
Don't you dare questioning my art
And Richard Pryor shot
Charlie Parker right through his heart
But I never felt mugged
Till that day you said to sell my soul
Art is not a product
It's a feeling beyond your control
Don't
you
dare!
Don't you dare...
Hey, you big effin' fraud
Don't you dare questioning my art
And Richard Pryor shot
Charlie Parker right through his heart
I see you hang around
that pretty young girl you found
She dreams, pure as dreams can be,
you will make her into me
I hope she sees before she breaks
that it is herself she makes
you too; you only make you
... and it's us you meanwhile screw
I hope she sees before she breaks
that it is herself she makes
Don't
you
dare!
I hope she sees before she breaks
that it is herself she makes
you
dare!
Don't
you
dare!
You're swimming in money
Money, which was all made by others
You call all girls "Honey"
And you don't care about their mothers
You hang around soulless
Eager to be part of all you're not
To you we're just dollars
Except for the ones who are real hot
Don't
you
dare!
Hey, you big effin' fraud
Don't you dare questioning my art
And Richard Pryor shot
Charlie Parker right through his heart
But I never felt mugged
Till that day you said to sell my soul
Art is not a product
It's a feeling beyond your control
Don't
you
dare!
Don't you dare...
Hey, you big effin' fraud
Don't you dare questioning my art
And Richard Pryor shot
Charlie Parker right through his heart
I see you hang around
that pretty young girl you found
She dreams, pure as dreams can be,
you will make her into me
I hope she sees before she breaks
that it is herself she makes
you too; you only make you
... and it's us you meanwhile screw
I hope she sees before she breaks
that it is herself she makes
Don't
you
dare!
I hope she sees before she breaks
that it is herself she makes
