By Warren Zevon. c. 1996 (?) Zevon Music/BMI. Well the wrong kind of people don't want you to change. They just want you to stay the same. They want to keep you in between. So hold that pose like a figurine. Figurine. Don't it make you want to scream?. Don't you get it yet?. They think of you as a statuette. And the wrong kind of people don't want you to change. They just want you to stay the same. They're gonna ask you 'Where you been?. ' Make you wait like a mannequin. They want to keep you high and dry. To furnish them with an alibi. They want to keep you in between. So hold that pose like a figurine. Figurine. Don't it make you want to scream?. Don't you get it yet?. They think of you as a statuette. Well the wrong kind of people don't want you to change. They want you to stay the same. They don't want you to be free. They want you to watch TV.
