Artist/Band: Janis Ian
Lyrics for Song: Some People
Lyrics for Album: Miracle Row/janis Ian II [2010]



Faithful is a lie

Freedom's just a game

Somebody tacked onto

Your ball and chain

Love is a drug

You've been canonized

Want to be a high priestess?

Then you got to sacrifice

Somebody wants you

To put out your eyes

And drag you lower

On the ladder than he is

Reel you in slowly

Kingfish on a line

Some people get a kick

Out of making you suffer

You try the patience of the gods

In the heat of a moment's pleasure

And your sad retreat

Mistake the moment for the song

The actor for the role

The neon light for day

Somebody wants you

To clip your wings

Take shelter in the dark

And the savage heat

Mocks you with the burning sky

And drops you in the ring

Somebody gets a kick

Out of seeing you suffer

He can't take pleasure

He feeds on pain

He ain't no gambler

He just likes to play the game

It's a measure of a man

It's a candle in the rain

To treasure the link

And not the chain
