You've Got Everything Now (tate)

As merry as the days were long

I was right and you were wrong



Back at the old grey school

I would win and you would lose





But you've got everything now

You've got everything now

And what a terrible mess i've made of my life

Oh, what a mess i've made of my life





No, i've never had a job

Because i've never wanted one





I've seen you smile

But i've never heard you laugh





So who is rich and who is poor ?

I cannot say ... oh





You are your mother's only son

And you're a desperate one

Oh ...





But i don't want a lover

I just want to be seen ... oh ... in the back of your car





A friendship sadly lost ?

Well this is true ... and yet, it's false

Oh ...





But did i ever tell you, by the way ?

I never did like your face

Oh ...





But you've got everything now

You've got everything now

And what a terrible mess i've made of my life

Oh, what a mess i've made of my life





No, i've never had a job

Because i'm too shy





I've seen you smile

But i've never really heard you laugh





So who is rich and who is poor ?

I cannot say ... oh





Oh ...

You are your mother's only son

And you're a desperate one

Oh ...





But i don't want a lover

I just want to be tied ... oh ... to the back of your car

To the back of your car

To the back of your car

To the back of your car

The back of your car

To the back of your car

Oh ...
