Will Butler - What I Want lyrics
rate me(Verse)
Tell me what you want, baby, and I will get it
Though it might take three to five business days
Maybe longer, I forget, cuz my head's in a bit of a pain
Since I met you now, I dunno where I am goin'
I dunno where I lost my shoes
I'm distracted by this one particular shade of blue
I bet you're wonderin' if I remember
Or if I'll remember just about everything
'xcepot what time it was, where we were
And one more thing!
(Chorus)
I would tell you what I want... what I wanted to say
I would tell you if it's ok, if it's ok, if it's ok!
(Verse 2)
If you come and take my hand, I will buy you a pony
We can cook it for supper, I know a great recipe for pony macaroni
Later on, we can walk the beach
Oh, you know that we can walk along the waves
Off to Greenland, you can bury me there in an icy grave
I'm so hot these days, but sometimes, oh, I get so cold
I've been told that it's a side thing from steering into the sun too long
If you'd told me that there is a wall, I would fight for you
If you'd told me that there is a wall, I would fight
Until we were all free, until we were all free
I said what about Tuesday night? Free!
(Bridge)
My body's not prepared for this
I can feel my heart beat out my chest
I apologize if I got hard blood all over you
My head's _______(?) but it's not my fault
So don't blame me, don't blame me, don't blame me
Cuz it's not my fault, IT'S YOUR FAULT!
(Guitar solo)
(Verse 3)
No, I'm not saying that we should rush this
I'm not suggesting that we should start having kids
And maybe, we can think about getting a dog
Or a fish tank or a jarred squid
Or a monkey, just a chicken pool...
Full of alligators, or a bone yard
Whatever you say, I'm a details man
I just wanna hang about you
And maybe get a chance to hold you
Don't tell me I've made a mistake
(Chorus)
I would tell you what I want... what I wanted to say
I would tell you if it's ok, if it's ok, if it's ok!
I would tell you if it's not too late
I would tell you if it's ok, if it's ok, if it's ok!
