You Can’t Always Get What You Want
"You can't always get what you want", take one

That's true, boy, let me tell you, you can't never get what you want, you gotta take what you want

Well, I saw her today at the reception
She had a glass of wine in her hand
I knew she was there to make a connection

If you want love, you've got to take love
If you want hate, you've got to take hate
If you want money, you've got to take money
If you want power, power, you've got to take power
Power, power, it's the thing of the hour

If you try sometime, you find
You get what you need, oh yeah

I went to this demonstration
To get my fair share of abuse
I was shouting words in their direction
Words I know would be refused

You've got to take it, oh you've got to take
You've got to take what you want
You've got to take what you need
You've got to take what you wand, take what you need

If you want a man, you've got to take a man, yeah
If you want a woman, you've got to take a woman
If you want love, you've got to take love
If you want hate, you've got to take hate
If you want power, you've got to take power
Power, power, it's the thing of the hour
Power, power, power, it's the thing of the hour

If you try sometime, you'll find
You get what you need, oh yeah, yeah
You get what you need, yeah yeah, uh-huh
But you gotta take, take, take what you need and you want
Say you can't get what you want
Take what you want
And then take some more
And take it all, and eat it all up
And when you can't find that ... [?]
Eat every roots in the grass, eat up the rocks
And eat up the ... [?]
Just eat everything
