Pet the bomb-sniffing dog It's friendly, though it's on the job It turns and says, "It's too damned-late-o'-clock" And I want what I want But I can't really say what I want Powdered light from flat screen Floods the room with "live beyond your means" There is a price for free speech You want what you want And you can't really say what you want The food is poison here, you can't eat it But in such large portions! The food is poison here, you can't eat it And it keeps you going! And if that's a joke, it's a joke, but not a funny joke You can have what you want, if you know what you want No one knows what they want Pet the bomb-sniffing dog It's friendly, though it's on the job The cause is worthy and it's lost And I want what I want But I can't really say what I want Pain deferred is pain amplified And fear rides shotgun, but always wants to switch sides "Come on, darlin' You can sleep while I drive" ♪ The food is poison here, you can't eat it But in such large portions! The food is poison here, you can't eat it And it keeps you going! And if that's a joke, it's a joke, but not a funny joke You can have what you want, if you know what you want No one knows what they want
