You’ve Got Everything Now

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 really 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 trueand 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
To the back of your car
To the back of your car oh
