Not My Slave

Oingo Boingo

    Continues after the ad

    With sadness in my heart and joy in my mind
    I thought about the ghost that we left behind
    With everyone around telling us what to do
    With deafening sound whisper: I love you

    The fire in your eyes-- may it never go out
    The sweetness of your tears make it feel like night
    I see no escape from the roles we always play
    What do we have to prove on this judgement day

    You're mine now but you're not my sister
    You're mine now but you're not my slave
    You're mine now but you're not my child
    You're mine now but you're not my slave

    You're missing my whole point: you're not my little pet
    Don't throw away your life, the games not over yet
    I do not own your soul, don't want you in a cage
    I only want your heart to find a special place

    But you're not my slave

    Continues after the ad

    You're missing my whole point-- you're not my little pet
    Don't throw away your life-- the games not over

    You're mine now but you're not my sister (you're mine)
    You're mine now but you're not my slave (you're mine)
    You're mine but you're not my child (you're mine)
    You're mine now but you're not my slave (you're mine)
    You're mine now but you're not my slave

    With sadness in my heart and clounds in my head
    I thought about us both and the lives we led
    The pages in a book and pictures on a screen
    We make ourselves like clay from someone else's dream

    One second you are cast just like stones at my feet
    But I am not a king please don't worship me
    With everyone around telling us what to do
    With deafening sound whisper: I love you

    You're missing my whole point-- you're not my little pet
    Don't throw away your life-- the games not over yet
    I do not own your soul--don't want you in a cage
    I only want your heart to find a special place

    You're mine
    But you're not my slave
    You're mine
    But you're not my slave
    You're mine

    You're mine now but you're not my sister (you're mine)
    You're mine now but you're not my slave (you're mine)
    You're mine now but you're not my child (you're mine)
    You're mine now but you're not my slave (you're mine)

    You're mine now but you're not my sister (you're mine)
    You're mine now but you're not my slave (you're mine)
    You're mine but you're not my child (you're mine)
    You're mine now but you're not my slave

    You're mine you're mine you're mine now
    But you're not my slave (you're mine)
    You're mine
    But you're not my slave
    But you're not my slave
