Lyrics
Figurine
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Well the wrong kind of people don't want you to change
They just want you to stay the same
They want to keep you in between
So hold that pose like a figurine
Figurine
Don't it make you want to scream?
Don't you get it, yet?
They think of you as a statuette
And the wrong kind of people don't want you to change
They just want you to stay the same
They're gonna ask you 'Where you been?
' Make you wait, like a mannequin
They want to keep you high and dry
To furnish them with an alibi
They want to keep you in between
So hold that pose like a figurine
Figurine
Don't it make you want to scream?
Don't you get it, yet?
They think of you as a statuette
Well the wrong kind of people don't want you to change
They want you to stay the same
They don't want you to be free
They want you to watch TV
