The Lyrics
Shaking my cage just to get away
seventeen dollars to bid me away
I'm Shaking my cage just to get away
But that bid is not even close
Anything goes but don’t bid you might wish
Cause I know that bid is not even close
I said that bid is not even close
Bring my cage down, bring my cage down tonight
Never thought I'd be sold
Well somebody sold
You were a killer
Who looked like a bidder
That I run from soon
It's is confidential
I've got to run
Ready? Let's bid onto something new
Taking its toll and I'm running away from you
Cause that bid is not even close
I said that bid is not even close
Bring my cage down bring my cage down tonight
Never thought I'd be sold
Well somebody sold me
You looked like a killer
Who looked like a bidder
That's not confidential
I've got potential
im runnin runnin around
get away from me
I said please don’t kill me
But I just want to run away
When all I wanna do is run
Well somebody sold me
You looked like a killer
Who looked like a bidder
That's not confidential
I've got potential
im runnin runnin around
seventeen dollars to bid me away
I'm Shaking my cage just to get away
But that bid is not even close
Anything goes but don’t bid you might wish
Cause I know that bid is not even close
I said that bid is not even close
Bring my cage down, bring my cage down tonight
Never thought I'd be sold
Well somebody sold
You were a killer
Who looked like a bidder
That I run from soon
It's is confidential
I've got to run
Ready? Let's bid onto something new
Taking its toll and I'm running away from you
Cause that bid is not even close
I said that bid is not even close
Bring my cage down bring my cage down tonight
Never thought I'd be sold
Well somebody sold me
You looked like a killer
Who looked like a bidder
That's not confidential
I've got potential
im runnin runnin around
get away from me
I said please don’t kill me
But I just want to run away
When all I wanna do is run
Well somebody sold me
You looked like a killer
Who looked like a bidder
That's not confidential
I've got potential
im runnin runnin around
