Dear Sir

Lyrics

[Verse 1] When your life is a valise And you're packing only dirty shirts And you compromise your mother's eyes To tranquilize your trigger finger itch Well I swear I'd rather clean the cages at the zoo Than to change my songs for you [Verse 2] When you struggle for the lights And the phone becomes your bedtime mate And you find yourself with a bloody tongue Talking to the people that you hate Well I swear I'd rather clean the cages at the zoo Than to change my songs for you Than to change my songs for you Than to change my songs for you [Bridge] I am nothing but some red ink or some black I'm demotion or a second Cadillac [Verse 3] When you sell out all your rights For a chance to be immortalized And you duck your friends from Juilliard Oh my God how much more can you take? Well I swear I'd rather clean the cages at the zoo Than to change my songs for you
