Is the constant lust for property
And still not be your property
But I won't be your property
Darkest day in history
We've been dividing up the planet
I can love you totally
And we go on carving
When you see something you want it
Darkest day in history
Then they're struttin' about like they own you inside out
Take all you can 'til you slam on the parking brake
Don't waste your vanity
Hands off what is mine
Meanwhile half the world is starving
And still not be your property
'Cause of our misery
But I'll never be your property
Just because you think I'm property
I call it slavery
I can love you totally
But I'll never be your property
Love you eternally
Something wonderful happens when people fall in love
You can't wait to give your heart away
When you slip on that ring, they start to treat you like a thing, yeah
But it's like I won't hold you back 'til the bags are packed
It's a crime
I'll be your fantasy
Since God began it
But it's like, anything you say 'til the wedding day
Your happiness is all they're thinking of
Just because you think I'm property
But it's like worship in their eyes, walking down the aisle
When you call someone your property
I will never be your property
Every girl and boy wants to grow up to be loved someday
Cause of our misery
Don't waste your vanity
Love from me's not guaranteed
When someone invented property
Love from me's not guaranteed
You've gotta put your name tag on it
I call it slavery
When someone invented property
When they get it in ink, they start to tell you what to think, yeah
Love you eternally
And you need space to make your own mistakes
When you call someone your property
I will never be your property
