You never listened to a word that I said,
You only see me for the clothes that I wear,
Or did the interest go so much deeper?
It must have been the color of my hair!
Public image, public image, public image
What you wanted was never made clear,
Behind the image was ignorance and fear.

You hide behind this public machine
Still follow the same old scheme
Public image, public image, public image
Two sides to every story, somebody had to stop me
I'm not the same as when I began,
I'll not be treated as property!

Public image, public image, public image
Two sides to every story, somebody had to stop me
I'm not the same as when I began,
It's not a game of monopoly!

Public image, public image, public image
