YOU WANT IT ALL While your old boyfriend played the Scottish flute at the Orange County Fair And as for me, I played "the Knight" dressed in my coat of mail I dove off the highboy as Superman in an attempt to make you wail But it was never enough....it was never enough for you 'Cause YOU WANT IT ALL....YOU WANT IT ALL Do you remember the time you threw out the lamp 'cause the finial was arabesque? Or the time the clock temporarily stopped? You said "a sundial would be best" Well your vicuna coat and periwinkle shoes are all you left behind You took the soap-on-a-rope and the tam o' shanter I believe you know they're mine But it's never enough....it's never enough for you 'Cause YOU WANT IT ALL....YOU WANT IT ALL Wasn't it you and some of your friends who tried to play Lacrosse? While I sat there like a buddha and played your albatross I played the lute in a sharkskin suit while you danced just like a worm gear Who could have guess this toboggan ride could last another year? But it was never enough....it was never enough for you 'Cause YOU WANT IT ALL....YOU WANT IT ALL Well your dew-lap neck and airedale eyes never left me too much hope That this "thing" we had ever could survive without a gyroscope And isn't it sad that your accordion thighs are swelling up again? I guess your atomizer and your barbell trainer won't save you in The End. |
