The Lyrics
My Version of George Michael's "Everything She Wants"
Somebody told me
That everything they want
Is everything they see
I guess I must have hated them
Because I said that I don't like your bay bay kids, lady
And now I'm six months older
And everything they want and everything they see
Is out of reach not good enough
I don't know what the hell they want from me
Somebody tell me
Why I work so hard for you
(To give you money)
Some people work for a living
Some people work fun
Girl I just work for you
They told me children were a give and take
Well they've showed me give and take, you've got some givin' to do
And now you tell me that you're having my baby
I'll tell you that I'm happy if you want me to
But one step further and my back will break
If my best isn't good enough
And how can it be good enough for them
I can't work any harder than I do
Somebody tell me
Why I work so hard for you
(To give you money)
Why do I do the things I do
I'd tell you if I knew
My god, I don't even think that I love you
Somebody tell me
Why I work so hard for you
(To give you money)
Somebody tell me
Why I work so hard for you
(To give you money)
How could you settle
For a guy like me
When all I can see
Is the end of the week
All the things they want
And the things we buy
Ain't gonna keep us together
It's just a matter of time
My situation
Never changes
Caring for your ugly bay bay kids
alwys cryin;
shittin diapers;
but always give you all
And you say that you want more
And all I can see
Is the end of the week
All the things they want
And the things we buy
Ain't gonna keep us together
Girl it's just a matter of time
That everything they want
Is everything they see
I guess I must have hated them
Because I said that I don't like your bay bay kids, lady
And now I'm six months older
And everything they want and everything they see
Is out of reach not good enough
I don't know what the hell they want from me
Somebody tell me
Why I work so hard for you
(To give you money)
Some people work for a living
Some people work fun
Girl I just work for you
They told me children were a give and take
Well they've showed me give and take, you've got some givin' to do
And now you tell me that you're having my baby
I'll tell you that I'm happy if you want me to
But one step further and my back will break
If my best isn't good enough
And how can it be good enough for them
I can't work any harder than I do
Somebody tell me
Why I work so hard for you
(To give you money)
Why do I do the things I do
I'd tell you if I knew
My god, I don't even think that I love you
Somebody tell me

And you say that you want more
And all I can see
Is the end of the week
All the things they want
And the things we buy
Ain't gonna keep us together
Girl it's just a matter of time

I like the idea for the song but I thought some parts were too close, or even exactly the same as the original. Even though they kind of fit the song, I thought with a little more creativity, the lines could have been improved. Example: Some people work for a living, Some people work fun, Girl I just work for you. I think of George Michael and the original song with this. I'd rather see it twisted around a bit, adding something else to your song. I did like the idea though, if I didn't, I wouldn't have left such a long comment.
