No Logo

Verse 1
We've been exposed to the harsh environments
We've been bruised, battered and wounded
We've been "all you can eat"
We were defenseless, voiceless and hopeless
We were being used
Every time you looked at us you saw dollar signs
Every time you called our names you knew we'd submit
Every time you tasted us you wanted more samples
We were aching to be set free

Verse 2
We weren't told many things that were key to our survival
All the affection and admiration was all for show
Every time you looked at us you saw dollar signs
Every time you called our names you knew we'd submit
Every time you tasted us you wanted more samples
We were aching to be set free

Bridge
Until today, we were the new kids on the block
We were tattooed and pigeon-holed
We were treated like dolls and toys
But all of that has changed

Chorus
There's no logo
Get with the program!
It's out of fashion
We won't be advertisements anymore
We're tired of being poster boys
We're ashamed of being billboard girls
We're no longer going to live on blood and gold
