Talent Factory

They turned on all the machines,

Time to create our new queen.

"Make sure she's pretty, or she'll fail,

She'll be the girl from fairy tales,

The girl you dream about,

The girl in front of the crowd."

Talent? They forgot that word,

Looks are what matters, they are told.

Another young girl expecting to be free,

She won't have freedom. She'll just have covers of magazines.

They've got her under control.

Making them cash is her role.

And slowly, she becomes spoiled,

They ruined her beautiful, strange world.

But talent isn't made in factories,

It's made of art, power and dreams.

And you achieve fame through being strong,

Not by listening to the things they say and following along.
