Shelley Segal What I Want
[Verse 1]
I'm not good at all this soppy shit
I'm much better at saying what makes me angry
But I'm getting better at saying what I want
Yeah I like you, I really like you
There are some pretty cool things about you
And what I'm asking is
Am I something fun that you might want
Yeah I like you, I'd like to sing about you
I feel like I can be myself around you
And I hope you feel the same way too
Cause I really like getting what I want
[Chorus]
More and more
I am discovering what I'm living for
I know, what I want
The going will get tough but getting there's gonna be fun
And everyday I am finding my songs
So I don't have time
To listen to you tell me that I'm wrong
Cause I know the best way for me and I'm happy
[Verse 2]
He says go out and get a real job
But baby this is by far the best kind of job
I work hard at it but I'm doing what I want
And here's a line that guides my way
The greatest achievement is to blur the line between work and play
And I'm doing that every day
Think what you want, that my role is not important
But even doctors go home put on music and get lost in it
At least I can contribute doing something that I want
[Chorus]
More and more
I am discovering what I'm living for
I know, what I want
The going will get tough but getting there's gonna be fun
And everyday I am finding my songs
So I don't have time
To listen to you tell me that I'm wrong
Cause I know the best way for me and I'm happy
[Verse 3]
You let me know of your distaste for tattoos
You let me know you don't care for hearing me sing the blues
But baby, yea baby
You let me know of your distaste for tattoos
You let me know you don't care for hearing me sing the blues
But baby, it's my life and I choose
[Chorus]
More and more
I am discovering what I'm living for
I know, what I want
The going will get tough but getting there's gonna be fun
And everyday I am finding my songs
So I don't have time
To listen to you tell me that I'm wrong
Cause I know the best way for me
[Chorus]
The more and more
That I'm discovering what I'm living for
It seems the more and more
People have something negative to say
And everyday I am finding my songs
So I don't have time
To listen to you tell me that I'm wrong
So go on, find your own way and be happy
