We Can'T Always Have What We Want

In thinking about her you waste precious hours And you won't win her over by giving her flowers Or whispering sweet nothings like sweetheart or honey She'll never be your's for you don't have enough money. Though she told you that you're not her type you keep on persisting And your best efforts to woo her she keep on resisting She chooses to ignore you her eyes are on Harry And he has heaps of money and him she would marry. But young Harry he only has eyes for another And the woman he wants happens to be her mother But her mother wants George and George he wants Jenny But Jenny feels strongly attracted to Lenny. The woman you want has her eyes on one who wants her mother And since she doesn't need you why not try for another? Some times you feel pain when by the love bug you've been bitten But of her you still dream and by her you've been smitten. Fair Lisa next door to you feels quite attracted But to her love signals you have not reacted And despite the efforts to woo her that you have invested The one that you want in you is not interested. We can't always have what we want that goes without saying And for love's disappointments in heartache we keep paying He could have the one next door but he loves another And the one he wants she wants one who wants her mother.
