After You Get What You Want (You Don't Want It) - Kathy Brier

Listen to me honey dear

Something's wrong with you I fear

It's getting harder to please you

Harder and harder each year

I don't wanna make you blue

But you need a talking to

Like a lot of people I know

Here's what's wrong with you

After you get what you want

You don't want it

If I gave you the moon

You'd grow tired of it soon

You're like a baby

You want what you want when you want it

But after you are presented

With what you want you're discontented

You're always wishing

And wanting for something

When you get what you want

You don't want what you get

And though I sit upon your knee

You'll grow tired of me

'Cause after you get what you want

You don't want what you wanted at all

Don't you say that I'm unkind

Think it over and you'll find

You've got a changeable nature

You're always changing your mind

There's a longing in your eye

That is hard to satisfy

You're unhappy most of the time

Here's the reason why

After you get what you want

You don't want it

If I gave you the moon

You'd grow tired of it soon

And though I sit upon your knee

You'll grow tired of me

'Cause after you get what you want

You don't want what you wanted at all
