You're Gonna Get It Now - alternate version

Said you wanted, said you needed
Well you're gonna get it now
Never got the punch lines
Buried in the headlines
Didn't think the law would allow

But you're so special
They're giving you the medals
So no more tears for a clown
You're a cheap sentimental still do the continental
That's why everyone has put you down
You say you want it, say you need it
Well you're gonna get it now

Be careful what you wish for
And the complements you fish for
Was it a knock down drag out
Still standing here wondering what it's all about
You say you want it, say you need it
Well you're gonna get it now

There's a part of us that can't let go
It's time to turn and face the strange
We missed the bus some time ago
Say brother can you spare some change
And maybe these dark clouds might bring some rain

Said you wanted, said you needed
Well you're gonna get it now
Couldn't make the deadlines
Waiting in the breadlines
Thought we'd work it out somehow

But you're so enlightened
Now everyone is frightened
You say you're gonna make things great
But look who's bankrupt
Breaking out the handcuffs
Hoping that it's not too late yeah
