Verse 1:
I'm not Britney Spears, I'm just sititng here
Playing a gig, in a bar, with my friends,
This bloke steps up, Big D, from A&R
Says 'I'm gonna make you a star'
Sat me down, said 'I'm, with the best'
Slapped a contract on the desk

The alarm bells ringing as he turns and says
'Sometimes selling out is good, coz you'll get praised,
Being true won't buy your mansion in L A'
So if I change my style, will I go all the way.
