Cannot always get what you want Should know that by now Because these things are few and far between Cannot control all my fears It often takes me by surprise And all the things I want to do Disappear in the face of what i have Why do we want more and more It never stops It never stops Freedom is when I walk alone Can tell myself what I want to And freedom lives in me So I do what I want to Yeah what I want to Why do we want more and more It never stops It never stops If you could read my mind I know you wouldn't want to Why do we want more and more It never stops It never stops
