WARREN ZEVON - FIGURINE lyrics

rate me

By Warren Zevon

c. 1996 (?) Zevon Music/BMI

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
