I'm coughing up a lung or two
Just so you know I'm breathing well
In front of you
I'm holding out a knife or two
Just so you know I'm standing next to you.
You can't always be down or out
But if you try you won't be found
You can't always get what you want
That's for sure
I'm sending out a note or two
That says we're all going to the same place
So it doesn't matter where you are in line.
I'm holding one hand or two
Depending if we're walking or dancing.
Either way I'm feeling fine.
You can't always be down or out
But if you try you won't be found
You can't always get what you want
You can't always be down or out
But if you try you won't be found
You can't always get what you want
That's for sure
Yeah, that's for sure
Yeah, that's for sure
Yeah, that's for sure
