You've got what I wantYou've got what I wantYeah, you've got what I wantYou've got what I wantYou've got what I wantYou've got what I wantYou've got what I wantOh yeah!It's only for the nightAnd I will give it back tomorrow I swearShe can barely breatheDon't stareI know the dress is tightBut it was all I had to wearGive me what I needPlease shareYou know it's only rightAnd I would never lie to youI wouldn't dare...I made a promise to myselfI wouldn't start with anyone else but...You know how it is with these promisesMade in the heat of the momentThey're made to be broken in twoSometimes the only thing to doIt's all coming backHow I came to in a sticky 3 day holeDidn't see the signGo SlowToo busy tuning static on the radioShe hissed it in a song"Don't go...it always fades to black"But that's why I love the trip, it's so inevitableI made a promise to myselfI wouldn't fall for anyone else but...You know how it is with these promisesMade in the heat of the momentThey're made to be less than they seemWhenever you've got what I needAnd you've got what I need...You've got what I needYou've got what I needAAAIIIIEEE!For service with a smileI have to walk in on my handsand roll for freeYou say it's all the sameEnnui...You're not the real Snow WhiteThe real Snow White is on my kneeI didn't need to getIt's simply minimum heightAnd getting all dressed upIn seven ways to pleaseYeahI made a promise to myselfI wouldn't stay with anyone else but...You know how it is with these promisesMade in the heat of the momentThey're made to be broken one dayIf there's no time to get awayShe wasn't made to shineShe was really only ever made to glowI left her in the darkNo showQuiet sucking on a lineIt was a tricky gun to loadAnd I didn't get to fireShe's off to work for timeAnd I should have finished out with higherUp than lowYeah, I made a promise to myselfI wouldn't stop with anyone else but...You know how it is with these promisesMade in the heat of the momentThey're made befor right becomes wrongWhenever you've got what I wantWhenever you've got what I wantWhenever you've got what I wantWhenever you've got what I wantAnd you've got what I wantYou've got what I wantYou've got what I wantOh yeah!It's only for the nightAnd I will give it back tomorrowI swear
