You can’t always get whatyou want.
You can’t always get whatyou need.
Be careful when you plant theseed.
Pay attention the signs you heed.
Sometimes you get what you want.
And the consequences are deepindeed.
They are the difference in theseed.
The difference between want andneed.
Sometimes you get what you need.
And you may take it with no heed.
But if you do not take it,
The consequences could be deepindeed.
So read the signs and be carefulwhat you want.
Tomorrow will come and it may begaunt.
You may not get what you thought.
But what you need, you’llwant.
