You never listened to a word that I said
You only seen me from the clothes that I wear
Public image you got what you wanted
Two sides to every story
The public image belongs to me
It's not a game of monopoly
I'm not the same as when I began
I will not be treated as property
Oh what you wanted was never made clear
It must have been to the color of my hair
You still follow same old scheme
Hello, hello
Behind the image was ignorance and fear
You hide behind this public machine
Somebody had to stop me
Somebody had to stop me
Or did the interest go so much deeper
Public image
Public image, public image
Public image
It's my entrance my own creation
Two sides to every story
I'm not the same as when I began
Public image
The public image
My grand finale, my goodbye
