Violent Femmes – I Get What I Want lyrics

[Intro]
Is this too hard
For little you to understand?
Then that's too bad for you
’cause I don't ask, I command

[Verse 1]
This is what you will be denied
'Til you learn to do what you are told
You could have it all if you tried
But baby, please, it’s getting old

[Pre-Chorus]
If you can't obey me
Then you don't deserve me

[Chorus]
I get what I want
And I want what I get
I want what I get
And I get what I want

[Bridge]
Don't speak unless spoken to
Is this really so hard to do?
I took a picture for you
I was in the mood
[?] better pay attention [dude?]
I was in the nude
And I really could have screwed [me?]

[Verse 2]
So this is what you will be denied
'Til you learn to do what you are told
You could have me all if you tried
But baby, please, I'm getting old

[Pre-Chorus]
If you can't obey me
Then you don't deserve me

[Chorus]
I get what I want
And I want what I get
I want what I get
And I get what I want

[Outro]
I get what I want (Is this too hard)
And I want what I get (For little you to understand?)
I want what I get (Then that’s too bad for you)
And I get what I want (’Cause I don't ask, I command)

I get what I want (Is this too hard)
And I want what I get (For little you to understand?)
I want what I get (Then that’s too bad for you)
And I get what I want ('Cause I don't ask, I command)
