Somebody told me, I know where to go
somebody showed me, I was last to know
Sell me down the river
sell me down the river
sell me down the river
sell me down the river

What I wanted, is what I wanted
what I wanted is what she wanted

Unfriendly feelings, down on wounded knee
unfriendly reasons, some blind mother's need

Sell me down the river
sell me down the river
sell me down the river
sell me down the river

What I wanted, is what I wanted
what I wanted is what she wanted

You read the words and it sells you life
they sell their words, but it's all a lie

    General Comment:This song is about an abortion decision Scott Weiland and his wife were faced with. Stone Temple Pilots performed it live for the first time on VH1 Storytellers in 2000, and the song was inspired by what Scott Weiland called "a painful and heartbreaking experience, when a former partner and I went through an abortion. It was a difficult choice for both of us. But thank god we were able to have that choice."

    General Comment:God this is so powerful. Such a range of emotion that they evoke. They have such great chemistry, what more would you ever want from a rock band? This is a gem.
