What You Want Lyrics by Spoonboy

I Love You This Is a Robbery

2005

[Spoonboy]
What you want, what you want, what you want is community
What you're looking for is roots
What you want, what you want, what you need is the answers
And you won't find them in religion
[Both]
Religion, no not in religion
Not religion, religion, no not in religion
Not religion, religion, no not in religion
[Spoonboy]
What you're looking for is love
Did you find it in alcohol?
Or did you find that ya get frustrated
By the way it tells you 'yes' or 'no'
Over and over?
I'm not saying it's wrong
We all go for the easy ones
Just sometime I’d like to sit down
With you
And focus on the questions
[Both]
Oh a wah oh
Oh a wah oh
Oh oh, a wah oh
Oh a wah oh, oh oh
[Spoonboy]
What happens when the idealistic turn bitter and judgemental
All the people and things don't turn out just exactly how they expect?
I understand
That people are sensitive
But I feel like I’m dealing with kids
Who think they've got the answers
And I call it religion
[Both]
And Ive got no interest in God
Not of any kind
[Spoonboy, (Backup)]
Maybe sometime you and me will get back to (oh a wah oh)
Explaining all the things we don't have to (a wah oh mmm)
And i'll learn more than just your name and where you're from (oh a wah oh, oh oh mmm)
[Both]
And you'll drink to the fact that we're human
And i probably won't drink at all
Whatever that says
And you'll drink to the fact that we're human
And i probably won't drink at all
Whatever that says
[Both, {New backup, distorted}]
Oh a wah oh {?}
Oh a wah oh {?}
Oh oh, a wah oh {?}
Oh a wah oh, oh oh {?}
{7, 8, take a walk to the wild side}
{Send ? babe}
{Take a walk to the wild side}
