You can't steal the pearls from my eyes
Though the pigs squeal in their cage
What's been given to me, what's been chosen for my life
Has been payed in full price
There's a danger that hangs circles "˜round my feet
See that man over there's trying to steal away the good I keep
Pull your words out of wire tap phones
Even to my mother I speak in signs and codes
Baby, take me away from this place
Look at me hiding from every familiar face
Put me in a dress and make believe I'm new
But my face reveals all the bad I used to do.
You can't steal the pearls from my eyes
Thou the pigs squeal in their cage
Whats been given to me, whats been chosen for my life
Has been payed in full price
