lyrics

Go into the candy store
All possible tastes catered for
Middle shelf to top racks
I only wanted Match Attax

See this is how you reel us in
Give us glimpses of our favourite sin
Start us on something soft-core
And always leave us wanting more

You tell us that the real thing's not good enough
Leave us unsatisfied
You tell us that the real thing's not good enough
Turn our beds to ice

Once I could ignore it now it's everywhere I look
Feeding me the same old lie

It's OK to look, they're not real women
It's OK to touch, they're not real women
It's OK to fall in love, they're not real women
In our heads
It's OK to pick and choose, they're not real women
It's OK to abuse, they're not real women
It's OK to bruise, they're not real women
In our messed-up heads

She was taken in Moscow
And sold-on in Soho
On a cold warehouse floor
She was raped until she felt no more

So now she'll do as she's told
And walk out in the freezing cold
Give her pimp all her money
So he don't hurt her family

Is this what liberation's supposed to be?
Sex as a commodity?
The glorious image in our bodies
Violated for a fee
Men, like junkies, beg for more
Secret lives of online porn
Still we think we're not bad guys
'Cause in our heads
