Born To Be Sold - Transvision Vamp

From Elvis Presley to Marilyn

Cassius Clay to Billy the Kid

Ooh ooh ooh ooh

Ooh ooh ooh ooh

From Jackie O to J.F.K

Little Richard and Lady Day

Ooh ooh ooh ooh

Ooh ooh ooh ooh

Everyone played a different role

Baby they were born to be sold

They were born to be sold

They were born to be sold

Now all I know is all I see

And what I am I choose to be

I don’t need no one to bleed for me

I’m gonna make my own history

Ooh ooh ooh ooh

Ooh ooh ooh ooh

Here comes the news

Here comes the news

Baby, here comes the news, alright

I was born to be sold

All you hot shot, big buck

Sweet talking, side walking

Foot tapping, tail wagging

Back stabbing, money grabbing

Slaves of gold

I’m telling you, I don’t need to be told

I cross my heart, rock my soul

Baby I was born to be sold

I was born to be sold

I was born to be sold

I was born to be sold

From Valentino to Fonteyne

Al Capone to John Wayne

From Harley D to Lenny Bruce

Harry Dean to Betty Blue

From Sister Sue to Judy Teen

Marty Wilde to Morrisey

From Johnny Rotten to Charlie Chaplin

Madonna Ciccone to Little Satnin

And back to Elvis and Marilyn

Sugar Ray and Billy the Kid

Jackie O J.F.K

Little Richard and Lady Day

I was born to be sold

I was born to be sold

I was born to be sold
