You Can't Always Get What You Wantz Lyrics - Waterboys

I saw her today at the reception 

she had a glass of wine in her hand 

She is practiced in the art of deception 

and her feet ne'er touched the ground 

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! 

But if you try some time 

you just might find 

You know what you need! 

Well, I went down to the demonstration 

to get my fair share of the views 

I was standing there next to Mr. Jagger 

the man did a-look pretty confused 

He said "you can't always get what you want!" 

no, you can't always get what you want! 

Indeed, you can't always get what you want!
