Nat King Cole - After You Get What You Want, You Don't Want It Lyrics

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
And 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 you sit upon my knee, you'll soon grow tired of me
'Cause after you get what you want, you don't want what you wanted at all

You're always wishing and wanting for something
When you get what you want, you don't want what you get
Although you sit upon my knee, you'll soon grow tired of me
'Cause after you get what you want, you don't want what you wanted at all

You want it when you wanted, after you get it you don't want it
After you get what you want, you don't want what you wanted at all
