Am                         F 
Lori Meyers used to live upstairs 
            G                    E 
Our parents had been friends for years 
Am                          F 
Almost every afternoon we'd play forbidden games 
G                                 E 
At nine years old there's no such shame 
   Am                        F                              
It wasn't recognition of her face, what brought me back  
        G                                    E 
was a familiar mark As it flashed across the screen 
                  Am                     F 
I bought some magazines, some video tape scenes 
              G                         E 
Incriminating acts, I felt that I could save 

(Same for second verse) 

"Who the hell are you to tell me how to live? 
You think I sell my body; I merely sell my time. 
I ain't no Cinderella, I ain't waiting for no prince, 
To save me in fact until just now I was doing just fine. 
And on and on.." 

"I know what degradation feels like 
I felt it on the floor at the factory 
Where I worked long before, I took control now I answer to me 
The 50K I make this year will go anywhere I please 
Where's the problem?"
