What do you do
When on that stage
Frightened
Of the audience
What do you do
When your wrists itch
And you can't
Say a word
What do you do
When everyone stares
And for once
You don't want the attention
What do you do
When the bidding starts
And you stand there
Waiting for the end
What do you do
When you are paid for
What will happen to you now?
