Lyrics
I bet you can't believe your luck
You've found a way to make an easy buck
It's not as if you're making any sacrifice at all
Do I bend to your will, Do I pay as you earn
Do I take to the stage, do a musical turn
You take all the rewards, while I'm here to take the fall
Can I keep the pace as I hit the ground running
I can see the view and it looks so stunning
You make it seem as if I can, really have it all
Do I sign the dotted line, and do make the call
Do I count for nothing, do you take it all
Hey you do you like what you see
Do you think you can bring out the best in me (x4)
You furrow your brow and you rapidly blink
As I ask you for some time to think
Who am I to question someone of your high regard
Do I have the look, do I have the skill
Do I have strength, Do I have the will
Does going it alone really have to be so hard
You say if I don't play the game you have a million more
But you're the one standing with your foot wedged in my door
Who needs who and who needs what who has the upper hand
I am just the face who works well within your brand.
