They gave you the option They gave you the choice They gave you the vision They gave you the voice And they're watching you Watching you Watching you The view is so nice From up on the hill They see all direction They run standing still And we want to be free But we can never come down We want to be free But we can never come down I want to sell my soul on MTV I want to sell my soul on MTV The static is soothing A chill in the air You put on your costume They pull up a chair And they're watching you Watching you Watching you They dress up in suits The welcoming sign They're floating like neon I send you a line And we want to be free But we can never come down We want to be free But we can never come down I want to sell my soul on MTV I want to sell my soul on MTV
