Would you do it for love?
Would you do it for pride?
If you gave it away
Woud you be satisfied?
On your hands and knees
When the price is right
You said you believe
But would you stand up and fight?
I think you better ask yourself
Before you criticize me
Are you a victim of the system
Of the powers that be?
If there was nothing to gain
Would you do it for free?
Would you do it for me?
Give it away in the bedroom
What you sell in the street
You spend a fortune on rags
And strip it down to the beat
I think you better ask yourself
Before you criticize me
Are you a victim of the system
Of the powers that be?
If there was nothing to gain
Would you do it for free?
Would you do it for me?
Are you in love with what you do?
Are you satisfied?
Is your heart straight and true?
Or did money make you tell a cold faced lie?
I think you better ask yourself
Before you criticize me
Are you a victim of the system
Of the powers that be?
If there was nothing to gain
Would you do it for free?
Would you do it for me?
