Don T Always Want lyrics

Nowadays people want more, more and so do I

My brother told me once
You always wnat what you don`t have
But take a look at all the things you do have
So the reason why I wrote this song
Was to express what I think is wrong

I`d like to be just a little bit taller
I`d like to be just a little bit prettier
I`d like to be just a little bit stronger
But hey whatever

CHORUS:
Don`t always want what you don`t have
But be grateful for what you have
Don`t always want what you don`t have
But be grateful for what you have

Well you can call me the consumator
`Cause I never stop
Feeding myself with all these obstacles untill I drop

I want a house, a fat cat, my own sauna and a pool
Have a yacht, my own piano and finally be cool
I`m like that kid screaming to his mama `I want that toy`
`Cause my filled room at home no longer gives me that joy
And I don`t recommend myself as someone to employ
`Cause I want it all

CHORUS

I want the world just to leave me alone
Wanna move to New York and learn the saxophone
I wanna jam with Miles Davis and John Coltran
I`ve got so many wishes I think I`m going insane

But what the hell am I supposed to do
`Cause I`m trying real hard to undo all the emptiness inside me
Which is why I want so much

CHORUS
