Sold

Lyrics

Last night my mother said to me: "I'm sick of making history There's got to be another way But we've got all these bills to pay And they ain't just gonna go away" Like a factory about to be shut down Another factory about to be shut down Sold (Sold), did you hear it? I'm sold Sold (Sold), did you hear it? I'm sold Sold (Sold), did you hear it? I'm sold Sold (Sold), did you hear it? I'm sold You're gonna like this one, you're gonna like this one I do See, if Mr. Botha was a man He'd tip the hat, he'd pass the can But he don't talk for you and me I saw him on the BBC His eyes looked like a factory About to be shut down His eyes looked like a factory With the lights out, about to be shut down Sold (Sold), did you hear it? I'm sold Sold (Sold), did you hear it? I'm sold Sold (Sold), did you hear it? I'm sold Sold (Sold), did you hear it? I'm sold Last night my mother said to me: "I'm sick of making history There's got to be another way For you to be" Last night my mother said to me: "When you grow up what will you be If not the white minority At least protect me" I'm not a factory that's about to be shut down Sold (Sold), did you hear it? I'm sold Sold (Sold), did you hear it? I'm sold Sold (Sold), did you hear it? I'm sold Sold (Sold), did you hear it? I'm sold Sold (Sold) There's gotta be a better way to be than this I'm sold Sold (Sold), did you hear it? I'm sold Sold (Sold), did you hear it? I'm sold
