Lyrics
[Verse 1]
So you're happy with your new position
You said it was your ambition
You got yourself a brand new lifestyle
Gonna keep you happy for a little while
Must make you feel very amused
To see me standin' here in plastic shoes
With my face against your window pane
All my faith in you goin' down the drain
[Verse 2]
I wonder why you had to change your name
I wonder really, are you still the same?
When I see you from time to time
When I say I'm fine, you know I might be lying
[Verse 3]
See you waitin' calmly in the hall
Your new sugar daddy's gonna call
He takes you for a ride down the Strand
And then he buys you anything you demand
Air-conditioned penthouse flat
Diamond rings and a brand new hat
You got what you wanted so bad
Front cover on the girlie mags
[Verse 4]
I wonder why you had to change your name
I wonder really, are you still the same?
When I see you from time to time
When I say I'm fine, you know I might be lying
[Verse 5]
I see you drivin' in your limousine
With your purple-tinted window screen
Well maybe you just can't remember
All the people you once befriended
I guess it's time for you to face the fact
That there'll never be a welcome back
So carry on playin' it cool
While I carry on playin' the fool
[Verse 6]
I wonder why you had to change your name
I wonder really, are you still the same?
When I see you from time to time
When I say I'm fine, you know I might be lying
