The Windfall Lyrics - Joni Mitchell

So you want me to buy you a car 

Why? Because Elvis did? 

Darlin' come on 

Because Elvis gave 'em cars 

You think I'm cheap 

And you're hard done by 

Look-you live here like a star 

Rent free suite 

Big blue pool that you sun by 

Trips to tropic shores 

Clothes from fancy stores 

You want too much 

You want too badly 

You want everything for nothing

23 One Hit Wonders You Still Can't Get Out Of Your Head 

Watch Will Smith perform to iconic song 'Prince Ali' from Aladdin 

Love Stinks, So Here Are 15 Anti-Valentine's Day Songs 

Going to the church 

You chant 

For my downfall 

Chanting for my house 

My friends 

You want it all 

The pillows on my bed 

The visions in my head 

You want too much 

You want too badly 

You want everything for nothing 

In the land of litigation 

The courts are like game shows 

Take what's behind the curtain 

The jury cries 

I'm not going to be the jackpot 

At the end of your perjured rainbow 

Not if local justice has even one good eye 

Photos 

Oh it's not like I was blind 

I saw 

But I took no action 

As you began to climb 

Green clawed 

Dissatisfaction 

It wasn't hard to guess 

That the end would be a mess 

You want too much 

You want too badly 

You want everything for nothing 

In the land of mass frustration 

The judges are sleeping 

Counting wooly little lawyers 

And grinding their teeth 

Outside my sleepless window 

The Hollywood sirens are shrieking 

While down some searchlit alley runs 

Some lost belief 

Oh I'm tangled in your lies 

Your scam 

Your spider web 

Spit spun between the trees 

Doors slam 

You want my head 

You'd eat your young alive 

For a jaguar in the drive 

You lie too much 

You lie too badly 

You want everything for nothing
