about

Amy is rich. She inherited her late father's estate and lives the privileged life of a modern day socialite. She has rich friends. She has rich connections. She has rich admirers. And she has a rich husband. She also follows an age old tradition that has fascinated many upper class ladies for centuries, from Marie Antoinette to Paris Hilton. She loves slumming it. Mixing with those poor and inferior mortals way below her high stature in society. It makes her feel good. She finds it exciting to visit those low life clubs and bars patronised by people at the bottom of the socio-economic scale, It's entertaining. It's dangerous. It's an adventure. But that's all it is. Although she has had many lovers, she feels nothing for these people other than a morbid curiosity. At the end of the night she hurries home to the safety and opulence of her expensive penthouse apartment. Many of her young men have dared to believe that she actually cares something for them. My advice to anyone with such aspirations is 'Forget her'. She's not for you.

lyrics

I used to think that they were trying to be cruel
And I'd lose my head
Trying to make me look like some kind of fool
Every time they said

She's not for you
You're from the wrong side of the track
Better walk right back
She moves too fast
She doesn't show it
But she's out of your class
And don't think she doesn't know it

She's not for you
Maybe she'll want you for a while
It makes her smile
To think she could break up your heart
If you let her
Buy you'd be better off
Trying to forget her

And so I'd turn and put my back to the wall
And say "You just don't know"
"You don't care about my feelings at all"
And then they'd tell me so

She's not for you
She's only playing her little game
They're all the same
She likes to feel your attention upon her
She'll never need you the way that you want her

Cos she's not for you
Just look at everything she's got
Everything you're not
Before she starts to set your world on fire
Just turn your head away and walk right on by her
