[Intro: Shaznay]
One two, one two, she's trapped
Gonna need some help, what you think about that?
One two, one two, she's trapped
Gonna need some help, what you think about that?
One two, one two, she's what?
Gonna need some help, what you think about that?
One two, one two, she's trapped
Gonna need some help

[Verse 1: Shaznay]
She sits in her armchair
Lookin' into space
Lookin' for a reason
To find her life's place
Feelin' a little bit sad
But not really all that bad
Searchin' for a dream
A dream that she's never had

[Pre-Chorus: Melanie, All & Shaznay]
She knows she should get out, but it ain't that easy
Her life's kinda full of shit, but it's all too sleazy
She's going out of her mind
But she still can't, ha, she can't leave her life, right

[Chorus: Nicole & Natalie with Melanie]
Trapped by her life
Life is unavoidable
Just to get by
To make it more affordable
Trapped by her life
Life is unavoidable
Just to get by
To make it more affordable

[Post-Chorus: Shaznay]
She can't afford that, ah
'Cause her pockets seemed fat
She can't afford that, ha
So what she gonna do now?

[Verse 2: Natalie]
She looks in the mirror
Her reflection's someone old
Seein' days go by
She don't need to be told
Feelin' a little bit sad
She cries and packs her bags
Rememberin' a dream
A dream that she'll never have

[Pre-Chorus: Melanie, All & Shaznay]
Where will she go, but it ain't that easy
How long 'til she comes home, but it's all too sleazy
Maybe she'll make it
Will she? Or maybe not, what?

[Chorus: Nicole & Natalie with Melanie]
Trapped by her life
Life is unavoidable
Just to get by
To make it more affordable
Trapped by her life
Life is unavoidable
Just to get by
To make it more affordable

[Bridge: Shaznay]
Trapped, uh-unavoidable, uh uh uh uh
Trapped, uh-unavoidable, uh uh uh uh uh
Trapped, uh-unavoidable, uh uh uh uh
Trapped, uh-unavoidable, uh uh uh uh uh

[Chorus: Nicole & Natalie, with Melanie, with Shaznay & Shaznay]
(Trapped) Trapped by her life
Life is unavoidable
Just to get by
To make it more affordable
(Trapped) Trapped by her life (trapped by life that's so unavoidable)
Life is unavoidable (just to get by)
Just to get by
To make it more affordable

[Outro: Shaznay, Melanie, Nicole & Natalie, Shaznay, Nicole & Natalie]
Trapped
Life is unavoidable
To make it more affordable
(Trapped by life that's so unavoidable)
Life is unavoidable
(Just to get by)
To make it more affordable
Trapped
She's trapped
Gonna need some help, but she'll find a way out
Life is unavoidable
One two, one two, she's trapped
Gonna need some help, but she'll find a way out
To make it more affordable
One two, one two, she's what? (trapped by life that's so)
Gonna need some help (unavoidable)
Life is unavoidable
One two, one two, she's trapped (just to get by)
Gonna need some help, but she'll find a way out
To make it more affordable
