Papers through, I'm leaving you today
Taxicab outside, I'm on my way
I am no longer married to you
And you are sure not married to me
And the only thing we have to share
Are some bitter memories, oh yeah
Oh yeah
And just because I'm leaving home
It doesn't mean I must be strong
I hold my head and stand so proud
Of moving to my rented accommodation
Oh, rented accommodation
All the things I might have seen and done
If I hadn't married him so young
I got a career and a house and car
By the age of 23
He said I was a lucky girl
And for years I didn't believe him
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
This wretched mansion house we share
The luxuries are everywhere
I fall so gracefully to earth
Into my little locked-down room
Rented accommodation
The fact I don't have you
Is my kind of situation
I can't get up in the mornings
I want to rise in the mornings
Yeah
Suddenly I'm so alive and
Thinking for myself
Everyday decisions made
Like this
Life seems so real and complete now
I can take a bicycle and
Ride along the Great Wall of China
Oh yeah
Hang my favorite picture on my wall
Sunday afternoons
I can ride and draw
Once again at home
Is the world such a beautiful place
And it's so beautiful to be free
To the only reason to survive
To get the message back to him
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
I live among the street's so poor
No jobs, no friends
food, no hope at all, and now I hear my neighbor scream, you get it all and more in a rented
accommodation, we're living and living in a rented accommodation.
A rented accommodation.
A rented accommodation.
A rented accommodation.
