Freedom '90

"'Freedom '90' is my confessional, I suppose, my way of putting the past behind me. I think it sounds more like a 'Wham!' record in terms of its energy and spirit than anything on 'Faith' did."

"The reference to MTV talks about the way I reinvented myself for MTV when Wham! finished."
- George
Listen to MP3

I wont let you down
I will not give you up
Gotta have some faith in the sound
Its the one good thing that Ive got
I wont let you down
So please dont give me up
Cause I would really, really love to stick around (oh, yeah)

Heaven knows I was just a young boy
Didnt know what I wanted to be
(Didnt know what I wanted to be)
I was every little hungry schoolgirls pride and joy
And I guess it was enough for me
(I say I guess it was enough for me)
To win a race? A prettier face!
Brand new clothes and a big fat place
On your rock and roll TV
But today I play the game is not the same
No way
Think Im gonna get me some happy

I think theres something you should know
I think its time I told you so
Theres something deep inside of me
Theres someone Ive got to be
Take back your picture in a frame
Take back your singing in the rain
And I just hope you understand
Sometimes the clothes dont make a man

CHORUS:
All we have to do now
Is take these lies and make them true somehow
All we have to see
Is that I dont belong to you
And you dont belong to me

(Freedom)
I wont let you down
(Freedom)
I will not give you up
(Freedom)
Gotta have some faith in the sound
(Youve gotta give for what you take)
Its the one good thing that Ive got
(Freedom)
I wont let you down
(Freedom)
So please dont give me up
(Freedom)
Cause I would really, really love to stick around
(Youve gotta give for what you take)

Heaven knows we sure had some fun boy
What a kick just a buddy and me
We had every big-shot goodtime band
On the run boy
We were 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 the MTV
But today the way I play the game has got to change
Oh yeah (Oh yeah)
Now Im gonna get myself happy

I think theres something you should know
I think I start to show
Theres something deep inside of me
Theres someone I forgot to be
Take back your picture in a frame
Dont think that Ill be back again
And I just hope you understand
Sometimes the clothes do not make a man

(Yeah, Yeah)

REPEAT CHORUS

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
Everybodys got to sell
But when you shake your ass
They notice fast
And some mistakes were build to last

Thats what you get
I say thats what you get

And after all this time
I just hope you understand
Sometimes the clothes
Do not make the man

REPEAT CHORUS

May not be what you want from me
Just the way its got to be
I loose the face now...(fade)
