Like a Soldier

See the add in the paper, maybe
You could be a star desired, easy
Travel the world in style and money
All the girls, all the girls so pretty
These traps lay at your feet, you’re caught in dark deceit
Your body surrenders
Your clothes they lie cheated on the floor
And you take it like a soldier would
On your back your knees it’s by the book
Say no, say no for me
Knock on the door of a stranger, smiling
No one there to save you, he’s checking
Eating up the phoney attention you’re really something
Shining bright shining bright for all to see
Your tears they’re stained with makeup, when the lights go down you’re all alone
Your body surrenders
Your clothes they lie cheated on the floor
And you take it like a soldier would
On your back your knees it’s by the book
Say no, say no for me
Laura, why’d you go over
