Songtext:
(Steele, Street)
Did you see that face
On the cover of the Village Voice?
How'd it get there?
Who made the choice?
There's a social reason
For who goes far
A social reason
For who's a star
See that person
At the front of the line
Hey, that space
Used to be mine
And there's a social reason
Why I'm not there
A social reason
And it's not fair
If you've got the right contacts
You can have the wrong act
'Cause you know and who you screw
Is more important than what you do
Hey!
See that name
In big, bold print?
How'd it get there?
Here's a hint
There's a social reason
Why it's there
And there's a social reason
And it's not fair
There's a social reason
Why I'm not there
A social reason
And it's not fair
Did you see that face
On the cover of the Village Voice?
How'd it get there?
Who made the choice?
There's a social reason
For who goes far
A social reason
For who's a star
See that person
At the front of the line
Hey, that space
Used to be mine
And there's a social reason
Why I'm not there
A social reason
And it's not fair
If you've got the right contacts
You can have the wrong act
'Cause you know and who you screw
Is more important than what you do
Hey!
See that name
In big, bold print?
How'd it get there?
Here's a hint
There's a social reason
Why it's there
And there's a social reason
And it's not fair
There's a social reason
Why I'm not there
A social reason
And it's not fair
