What You Get

Thought I had found the golden door

My promised land

That vein of ore

But that dog just won’t hunt anymore

You get what you get

And that’s it

You get what you fucking get

Pray your fifty-fifty bet

Wish in one hand

Wait and fret

You get what you fucking get

I’d hoped I’d found that firy eye

That stretch of thigh

That gentle sigh

But every beauty lives to die

You get what you get

And that’s it

You get what you fucking get

Pray your fifty-fifty bet

Wish in one hand

Wait and fret

You get what you fucking get

Is it good?

Is it right?

Holding on so fucking tight

Has “forever” warped your mind

Nothing will keep for all time

Thought I’d seen the finish line

The end of pain

The summer wine

The sweet reply to my Valentine

But you get what you get

And that’s it

Is it good?

Is it right?

Holding on so fucking tight

Has “forever” warped your mind

Nothing will keep for all time
