Lyrics
What have you got that gets me?
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You haven't got, a certain glance
You don't romance
And when we dance, you only dance
But what have you got that gets me?
You haven't got that old appeal
You're cold as steel
You drive with both hands on the wheel
But what have you got that gets me?
You tease me, you taunt me
You let me sigh
I want you to want me
But why?
You haven't got a fantasy
Your chin is weak
You don't have what they call technique
But what have you got that gets me?
