Is there anyone prepared to tell me why? Tell me why I'm being sucked dry? Oh yes, that is yours and this is mine As long as the balance is out That's fine I don't define the terms of the oppression Do you awake to that dull and grey depression? You ride on me Suck my energy You take what you want when you want it You reject any change that I make You ask me for more when I've spent it When I've given it all, you still take Is there anyone prepared to tell me why? Tell me why I'm being sucked dry? Oh yes! I know the lines you drawn for protection The number given for a name is simply for detection I know I'm only paper in a file But couldn't you treat me as a human for a while? You ride on me Suck my energy You take what you want when you want it You reject any change that I make You ask me for more when I've spent it When I've given it all, you still take Is there anyone prepared to tell me why? Tell me why I'm being sucked dry? You offer your protection, but insist when I decline You offer independence, but demand I toe the line You say you give me freedom, but you hang on to the key Well don't you think, perhaps, the decision's up to me? You ride on me Suck my energy You take what you want when you want it You reject any change that I make You ask me for more when I've spent it When I've given it all, you still take Is there anyone prepared to tell me why? Tell me why I'm being sucked dry? So tell me I'm dreaming if I want to live And I'll tell you you're just scheming to make me give More than I want to, more than I can You don't want person, you just want a woman You hide behind logic, secure with your facts You've a history of time to back up your claims Protecting the future by filling up the cracks That might expose the real nature of your games You want woman 'cause she's children for your system Well, people wither in that living death You hide behind your prejudice, afraid of my wisdom Afraid I might question your unquestioned worth You ride on me Suck my energy You take what you want when you want it You reject any change that I make You ask me for more when I've spent it When I've given it all, you still take Is there anyone prepared to tell me why? Tell me why I'm being sucked dry? Used as a tool? Treated like a fool? Spat on? Shat on? Totally confused? Fucked up? Mucked up? Totally abused? Pulled about? Fooled about? Treated like a toy? Joked about? Poked about? Something to destroy? Tricked? Kicked? I don't want these games
