After You Get What You Want (You Don't Want It)

After You Get What You Want, You Don't Want It (Stereo Version from 'There's No Business Like Show Business', 1954) - Irving Berlin (歐文·柏林)

Written by：Irving Berlin

After you get what you want you don't want it

If I gave you the moon you'd grow tired of it soon

You're like a baby

You want what you want when you want it

But after you are presented

With what you want you're discontented

You're always wishing and wanting for something

When you get what you want

You don't want what you get

And tho' I sit upon your knee

You'll grow tired of me

'Cause after you get what you want

You don't want what you wanted at all

Changeable

You've got a changeable nature

Always always changing your mind

There's a longing in your eye

Hard to satisfy

And here's the reason why

Cause after you get what you want you don't want it

If I gave you the moon you'd grow tired of it soon

You're like a baby

You want what you want when you want it

But after you are presented

With what you want you're discontented

You're always wishing and wanting for something

When you get what you want

You don't want what you get

And tho' I sit upon your knee

You'll grow tired of me

'Cause after you get what you want

You don't want what you wanted at all

Baby I don't need to make you blue

But you need a talking to

'Cause after you get what you want

You don't want what you wanted at all
