You can't always get it When you really want it You can't always get it at all Just because there's space In your life it's a waste To spend your time why don't you wait for the call (Just gotta get used to it) We all get it in the end (Just gotta get used to it) We go down and we come up again (Just gotta get used to it) You irritate me my friend (This is no social crisis) This is you having fun (No crisis) Getting burned by the sun (This is true) This is no social crisis Just another tricky day for you You can always get higher Just because you aspire You could expire even knowing. Don't push the hands Just hang on to the band You can dance while your knowledge is growing (It could happen anytime) You can't expect to never cry (Patience is priceless) Not when you try to fly so high (Just stay on that line) Rock and roll will never die (This is no social crisis) Another tricky day Another gently nagging pain What the papers say Just seems to bring down heavier rain The world seems in a spiral Life seems such a worthless title But break out and start a fire y'all It's all here on the vinyl (No crisis) You can't always get it When you really want it You can't always get it at all Just because there's space In your life it's a waste To spend your time why don't you wait for the call (Just gotta get used to it) Gotta get used to waiting (Just gotta get used to it) You know how the ice is (Just gotta get used to it) It's thin where you're skating (This is no social crisis) Just another tricky day for you fella
