Lyrics
Sell Me Out Lyrics & music by Deborah DeDe Wedekind, Copyright Aug 2015, Bb minor, fast Stones Style Blues
V 1: If you say it, should I listen?
Even if it don't move me?
Pretty trophies, they all glisten
You're always tryin' to improve me.
If you're gonna sell me out and take me down,
Don't look back cause I'm leavin town-
One truth needs to be told-
Only fools buy the Devil's gold.
Pre-Chorus: Sell Me Out
Take me down
Chorus: Sell me out, take me down,
Don't look back, cause I'm leavin town.
Sell me out, help yourself,
Dust me off, then put me back on the shelf.
All that glitters isn't gold,
Going once, going twice
Sold......
You sell me out.
V2: I bought into every promise
A pack of lies is what you sold,
I got nothing, I'm empty handed
How does it feel to sell your soul?
If you're gonna sell me out and take me down,
Don't look back cause I'm leavin town-
One truth needs to be told-
Only a fool buys the Devil's gold.
Pre-Chorus & Chorus
V 3: Blind ambition's all that mattered
False illusion, mirrors and smoke,
Now my dreams, have all been shattered
Beneath your smile's a heart of stone.
Bridge: Take me down, sell me out,
Tell me lies, put me back on the shelf,
Take me down, sell me out,
Don't know how you live with yourself?
Chorus: Sell me out, take me down,
Don't look back, cause I'm leavin town.
Sell me out, help yourself,
Dust me off, then put me back on the shelf
All that glitters isn't gold,
Sell me out, take me down,
Don't look back, cause I'm leavin town.
Sell me out, help yourself,
Dust me off, then put me back on the shelf
All that glitters isn't gold,
Going once going twice,
Sold...
You sell me out...
To the highest bidder,
You sell me out...
And now I'm....
..Sold!
