George Michael - Freedom! '90 (Live from MTV Unplugged, 1996)

Freedom Freedom Freedom You've got to give for what you take Freedom Freedom Freedom You've got to give for what you take Heaven knows I was just a young boy Didn't know what I wanted to be (Didn't know what I wanted to be) I was every little hungry schoolgirl's pride and joy And I guess it was enough for me (Guess it was enough for me) To win the race? A prettier face! Brand new clothes and a big fat place On your rock and roll TV (Rock and roll TV) But today the way I play the game Has got to change, oh yeah Now I'm gonna get myself happy (Now I'm gonna get myself happy) I think there's something you should know (I think it's time I told you so) There's something deep inside of me (There's someone else I've got to be) Take back your picture in a frame (Take back your singing in the rain) I just hope you understand Sometimes the clothes do not make the man All we have to do now Is take these lies and make them true somehow All we have to see, yeah Is that I don't belong to you And you don't belong to me yea yea Freedom Freedom Freedom You've gotta give for what you take Freedom Freedom Freedom You've gotta give for what you take Heaven knows we sure had some fun, boy What a kick just a buddy and me (What a kick just a buddy and me, yeah) We had every big shot good-time band on the run, boy We were living in a fantasy (Living in a fantasy) We won the race Got out of the place I went back home got a brand new face For the boys on MTV (Boys on MTV) But today the way I play the game Is not the same, oh yeah Now I'm gonna get myself happy (Now I'm gonna get myself happy) I think there's something you should know (I think it's time I stopped the show) There's something deep inside of me (There's someone I forgot to be) Take back your picture in a frame (Don't think that I'll be back again) And I just hope you understand Sometimes the clothes do not make the man All we have to do now Is take these lies and make them true somehow All we have to see Is that I don't belong to you And you don't belong to me, yea yea Freedom Freedom Freedom You've got to give for what you take Freedom Freedom Freedom You've got to give for what you take There's big fun coming up Here we go... Well it looks like the road to heaven But it feels like the road to hell When I knew which side my bread was buttered I took the knife as well Posing for another picture Everybody's got to sell But when you shake your ass They notice fast And some mistakes were built to last That's what you get That's what you get That's what you get That's what you get That's what you get For changing your mind That's what you get for changing your mind That's what you get (changing your mind) That's what you get That's what you get That's what you get And I just hope you understand Sometimes the clothes Do not make the man Freedom Freedom Freedom You've got to give for what you take Freedom Freedom Freedom You've got to give for what you take Freedom (I won't let you down) Freedom (I will not give you up) Freedom (Gotta have some faith in the sound) You've gotta give for what you take (It's the one good thing that I've got) Freedom (I won't let you down) Freedom (So please don't give me up) Freedom You've gotta give for what you take
