Lyrics
Canned laughter for applause
You've opened doors
In and out of their wives
In and out your smalls
It's not a BAFTA you're after
You want a million dollar lay
By all means necessary
You will get your way
It all seems so easy
But so are you
That's what I've heard them say
All the make up you wear
Can't hide the flaws
You work in charity for your own cause
You won't be dating a teacher
You'd rather shag a manic street preacher
By all means necessary
You will get your way
It all seems so easy
But so are you
That's what I've heard them say
Sex with a stranger
You've been laid in a manger
And you think he's your saviour
Will he leave his pager
You could be his daughter
Look what he's bought ya
But the money won't change ya
Of that there's no danger
Now your life's gettin' darker
It's you that they're after
Fifteen minutes a martyr
Blame it on your father
That dress nearly fits ya
Girl what's possessed you
Can we please take your picture
You know they'll forget ya
Ooh yeah
It seems so easy
But so are you
That's what I've heard them say
By all means necessary
You will get your way
By all means necessary
You will get your way
By all means necessary
You will get your way
You don't get your way
By giving it away
You don't get your way
By giving it away
You don't get your way
By giving it away
You don't get your way
By giving it away
