You Can’t Always Get What You Want – Jagger, Richards
I saw her today at the reception
A glass of wine in her hand
And I knew she would meet her connection
At her feet was a footloose man
Chorus
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
If you try sometime you might find
That you get what you need
I went down to the demonstration
To get my fair share of abuse
Singing, "We're gonna vent our frustration
And if we don't, we're gonna blow a fifty amp fuse"
Chorus and Break
I went down to the Chelsea drugstore
To get your prescription filled
Standing in line with Mr. Jimmy
And man, did he look pretty ill
We decided that we would have a soda
My favorite flavor, cherry red
I sung my song to Mr. Jimmy
And he said one word to me, and that was "Dead"
Chorus
I saw her today at the reception
In her glass was a bleeding man
She was practiced at the art of deception
I could tell by her blood-stained hands
Chorus
