Sonia Johnson - They Stole Your Song

They stole your song
Just like you took my heart
With no shame
They plagiarized
They used your lines
Your beats, your rhymes
They sensed your pain
That is so lame
They stole your song
Just like you took my heart
With no shame
Who whips some tracks?
Lie in your back
Bootleg to fame
Using your name
Oh! please explain.

Just like the deserts have lost all their water
Some folks are shallow, they truly don’t bother
To get better instead of greedier
And John Lennon told the world one day
Instant Karma’s going to get you, anyway

They stole your song
Just like you took my heart
With no shame
Under contract
You played it right
Bridges, hooks and time
AABA – Now, it’s all gone away.

Just like the deserts have lost all their water
Some folks are shallow, they truly don’t bother
To get better instead of greedier
Carly Simon would not change a verse for you
You’re so vain, you know she would say
that this song is not about you
