She Wants so Many Things - Graham Parker[00:00:00]
She wants so many things[00:00:18]
You can't give to her[00:00:20]
She wants so many things[00:00:22]
You don't have much[00:00:24]
She wants so many things[00:00:26]
You can't deliver to[00:00:28]
She wants so many things[00:00:30]
All at once[00:00:33]
Like a brick wall that'll[00:00:35]
Keep her from crumbling[00:00:37]
And a camouflage jacket[00:00:38]
To hide from herself in[00:00:41]
And a system of worship[00:00:43]
Like a powerful magnet[00:00:45]
That'll draw in the heathens[00:00:47]
Pick them up in a dragnet[00:00:49]
And pull them underwater[00:00:51]
Till they all go stagnant[00:00:53]
She wants so many things[00:00:55]
Beamed in on a satellite[00:00:58]
Served up on a silver tray[00:01:00]
A wasp and parasite[00:01:02]
She wants so many things[00:01:04]
Where you gonna find them all[00:01:06]
She wants so many things[00:01:08]
Get up and run[00:01:10]
She wants so many things[00:01:12]
You're at her beck and call[00:01:15]
You're the puppet[00:01:17]
She pulls the strings just for fun[00:01:18]
Like a blue ocean[00:01:21]
That's devoid of fishes[00:01:22]
Cause they're all on her table[00:01:24]
Prepared into dishes[00:01:27]
Like an army of lieutenants all[00:01:29]
Standing to attention[00:01:31]
And a book about you where you[00:01:33]
Don't get a mention[00:01:35]
With her hand on a bible[00:01:37]
She's right in your face[00:01:39]
She's a living example[00:01:41]
Of god's bad taste[00:01:43]
And with him for an ally[00:01:45]
She can't be a heretic[00:01:47]
But her heart's from a laboratory[00:01:49]
Spun from a synthetic[00:01:52]
She wants so many things[00:01:54]
Brought without question[00:01:56]
The gardens of babylon[00:01:58]
Hanging and festooned[00:02:00]
A ship in the desert[00:02:02]
Your soul on a plate[00:02:04]
She can't wait any longer[00:02:06]
Don't make her wait[00:02:09]
She wants so many things[00:02:10]
You can't negotiate[00:02:13]
She wants so many things[00:02:15]
You feel the crunch[00:02:17]
She wants so many things[00:02:19]
Don't make her reiterate[00:02:21]
She wants so many things[00:02:23]
All at once[00:02:25]
A collection of clowns who were[00:02:27]
Dragged up in public school[00:02:29]
Who dream up the rhythms[00:02:31]
That she dances in the disco to[00:02:33]
They all surround her[00:02:36]
And yes her to death[00:02:37]
With their hands on their mouths[00:02:39]
To hide their bad breath[00:02:41]
And she lives in a fortress[00:02:43]
At the back of a project[00:02:46]
And she'll let you in soon[00:02:48]
But not now and not yet[00:02:50]
And she likes to see you[00:02:52]
Immersed in greed[00:02:54]
Confusing what you want with[00:02:56]
What you need[00:02:59]
She wants so many things[00:03:00]
Split up into atoms[00:03:03]
She owns the crown jewels[00:03:04]
But you can't get at 'em[00:03:07]
She wants so many things[00:03:09]
Where you gonna find them all[00:03:11]
She wants so many things[00:03:13]
Get up and run[00:03:15]
She wants so many things[00:03:17]
You're at her beck and call[00:03:20]
You're the puppet[00:03:22]
She pulls the strings just for fun[00:03:22]
Do do do do do do do do do do do do[00:03:28]
Do do do do do do do do[00:03:37]
Do do do do do[00:03:39]
She wants so many things[00:04:01]
You can't keep up with her[00:04:04]
She wants so many things[00:04:05]
At the same time[00:04:08]
She wants so many things[00:04:10]
You can't keep it up her[00:04:12]
She wants so many things[00:04:14]
You'll never find[00:04:16]
Like three million shoes[00:04:18]
And a closet full of whips[00:04:19]
And two dozen hats and then[00:04:22]
Everyone fits[00:04:24]
And the kind of acceptance[00:04:26]
That needs a lobotomy[00:04:28]
That'll help you accept every[00:04:30]
Single contradictory[00:04:32]
Statement that hits you[00:04:34]
Like a force nine gale[00:04:36]
And makes you go pale every[00:04:38]
Time that you fail[00:04:41]
To bring home the bacon[00:04:43]
And bring in the goods[00:04:45]
Get the musk from the deer and the[00:04:47]
Shell from the turtle[00:04:49]
And the gold from the fools and the[00:04:51]
Shells from the sea[00:04:53]
She says load them in a caravan[00:04:55]
Bring them to me[00:04:57]
She wants so many things[00:04:59]
Brought to her feet[00:05:01]
Cover every inch of the world in concrete[00:05:03]
You better do it[00:05:07]
It's only your fate[00:05:09]
She can't wait any longer[00:05:12]
Don't make her wait[00:05:14]
She wants so many things[00:05:16]
You can't give to her[00:05:18]
She wants so many things[00:05:20]
You don't have much[00:05:22]
She wants so many things[00:05:24]
You can't deliver to[00:05:27]
Everything's attached to strings[00:05:28]
You can't touch[00:05:31]
She wants so many things[00:05:35]
She wants so many things[00:05:43]
She wants so many things[00:05:51]
She wants so many things[00:06:00]
