You Can't Always Get What You Want (feat. Hothouse Flowers)
I saw her today at the reception
A glass of wine in her hand
I knew she was gonna meet her connection
As at her feet was a footloose man
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes
You just might find
You'll get what you need
I went down to the demonstration
To get my fair share of abuse
Singing "we're gonna vent our frustrations"
"And if we don't we're gonna blow a 50-amp fuse"
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes
Well, you just might find
You'll get what you need
I went down to the Chelsea drugstore
To get your prescription filled
I was standing in line with Mister Jimmy
And man, did he look pretty ill
We decided that we would have a soda
My favorite flavor, was cherry red
I sung my song to Mister Jimmy
And he said one word to me, and that was "dead"
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
No no, you can't always get what you want
Oh, you can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes
You just might find
You'll get what you need
I saw her today at the reception
In her glass was a bleeding man
She was practiced at the art of deception
Well I could tell by her bloodstained hands
Oh, yes I could
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes
Yeah, you just might find
You'll get what you need
Oh sugar, you'll get what you need, yeah yeah yeah
You'll get what you need, yeah yeah yeah
You'll get what you need, yeah yeah yeah

My baby loves me, oh yeah

My sweetie pie has the only sweet voice I hear so clear
Sayin' that she needs me

'Cause I know she needs me

Shouting from the back row
Like monkeys at a zoo
Intricate abuses
Hey Pinky we'll get you
Everybody guessing
It's hard to work them out
Everything that was dead and gone
When we're dead we'll be looking on, yes we will
We had this little something
To fix you when you're flat
Pink magic was its theme
And it would fix you just like that
Everybody tried it
It worked out pretty well
When you think that you're feeling down
Sing a song it will bring you round, yes it will
Easy, easy does it
Can't you learn to live in peace
(yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Take it, take it slowly
There's no real need to race
(yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Gently, gently darling
You don't have to keep the pace

Her whole world's come undone
From lookin' straight at the sun
What did her daddy do?
What did he put you through?
They say when Janie was arrested
They found him underneath a train
But man, he had it comin'
Now that Janie's got a gun
She ain't never gonna be the same
Janie's got a gun
Janie's got a gun
Her dog day's just begun
Now everybody is on the run
Tell me now it's untrue
What did her daddy do?
He jacked a little bitty baby
The man has got to be insane
They say the spell that he was under
The lightning and the thunder
Knew that someone had to stop the rain
Run away, run away from the pain

It was Janie's last I.O.U
She had to take him down easy
And put a bullet in his brain
She said 'cause nobody believs me
The man was such a sleaze, he ain't
Never gonna be the same

It All Comes Down To Love
Straight shot of misery
Some days make a mess of me
I touch the ground when I can find my feet
You know it all comes down to love
I tell myself I can do it all
I juggle everything
I drop the ball
Sometimes it feels my life's impossible
But then it all comes down to
Love
I'd love to take you on a time machine
Fill those cracks things fall between
So we could find more days to fly away from the hurricane
But in the ebb and flow
It all comes down to love
Oh, it all comes down to love
Yeah, yeah, yeah
The clock chimes
The babies cry
I turn around and they've grown so high
As I let 'em grow
I watch 'em fly
You know it all comes down to love
I light the candles and I cut the cake
Make a wish for every heart that breaks
Sweet forgiveness never made a mistake
You know it all comes down to
Love
I could love you 'till my heart's content
So you must be Heaven sent
The way you sweep me up in your arms in the middle of an argument
And you let me know
It all comes down to love
Oh, it all comes down to love
Take you down to guts and the rubble
Diggin' up the deeper stuff
You gotta trust when you're runnin' into trouble
That it all comes down to
Love
Love
Love
Love
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
You know it all comes down to love
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
You know it all comes down to love
