everybody wants something

you work a good nine to five

and let it control you

hungry for the piece of the pie you think someone owes you

but you don't try to survive past what you think you know

you say afloat never swim

let the waves take your soul. everybody wants something

but you're not gonna get from me

gotta go for what you know

what you get ain't all what you see. relationships are up to you to manifest destiny

you fuss and fight all the time

seems like you can't agree

no compromise

everyone thinks they're so damn wise

but i know one thing's for certain

what you do brings everything

while what you say don't mean a damn thing

what you say don't mean a damn thing

oh

oh. what you see ain't always what you get

what you see ain't always what you get

what you see ain't always what you get.
