The Basics So Hard For You Official Music Video

You think it's so hard for you
You moan about the things you do
Well it's gonna get a little bit harder
Cos this train can't go no farther
Since the day you came on the scene
I've been treating you like my queen
Spending my money just to make you smile
I'd give an inch but you'd take a mile
(Well baby I've been thinking...)

That I don't wanna be your saviour anymore
I ain't gonna get you what you want
I'm here to tell you that it's not okay
I'm not your meal-ticket sucker just to pay your way

You never really cared for friends
Little more than a means-to-the-end
You won't be happy 'til they call you famous
Your attitude is entirely shameless
And so I realise my mistake
You never give, you just take, take, take
Whether money or imagination
We're all figures in your calculation

But I don't wanna be your saviour anymore
I ain't gonna get you what you want
I'm here to tell you that you're on your own
I'm not your lap-dog woman and I'm telling you
Don't wanna be your saviour anymore
I don't wanna be your saviour anymore

Think you struggle like the rest of us
You really think that you do it tough
Well you should try a bit of 9-to-5
Where the measure of your life is a...
Paycheck -- just enough to pay the rent
We're all thinking in dollars-and-cents
But when you get it on a silver plate
I know you can't appreciate

That I don't wanna be your saviour anymore
I ain't gonna take you to the top
I'm here to tell that you're on your own
I'm not your cash cow woman and I'm telling you
Don't wanna be your saviour anymore
I ain't gonna open every door
You better listen to me when I say
You're a gold-digger, honey, and it stops today

Saviour anymore x 3
... don't wanna see you no more
Sister -- I ain't your penny-packing daddy
Lover - can you hear me sayin...
I don't wanna be your saviour anymore x 3
