You know what I want
You know what I need
You can't keep it from me forever
Give me what I want
Give me what I need
You can't keep it from me forever
Me, I know every trick in the book
Every trick by hook or by crook
I go on, I go on, I go on, I go on
I get too involved
Have done forever
That which I desire
That to which I do aspire
You can't keep it from me forever
But I know every trick in the book
Every trick by hook or by crook
I'll go on, you'll go on, they'll go on, we'll go on
It's too involved
Has been forever
You know what I want
You know what I need
You can't keep it from me forever
You can't keep it from me forever
No, no, no
You can't keep it from me forever
No, no, no, no
Every trick in the book
Every trick by hook or by crook
I'll go on, you'll go on, they'll go on, we'll go on
It's too involved
(Has been forever)
Every trick in the book
Every trick by hook or by crook
I'll go on, I'll go on, I'll go on, I'll go on
I get too involved
(Has been forever)
You can't keep it from me forever
You can't keep it from me forever
