What Do You Want Lyrics

What do you want, what do you want for Christmas
Whatever it is I'll get it for you
What do you want, what do you want for your birthday
All I want, I want, want, want is you

If you want a diamond ring to shine, shine, shine
Or a fancy little watch to tell the time, time, time
Every morning all I want to find, find, find is you, I said you

What do you want, whatever it is I'll get it for you
What do you want, all I want, I want, want, want is you

If you want a diamond ring to shine, shine, shine
Or a fancy little watch to tell the time, time, time
Every morning all I want to find, find, find is you, I said you

What do you want, what do you want for Christmas
Whatever it is I'll get it for you
What do you want, what do you want for your birthday
All I want, I want, want, want is...
What do you want, what do you want for Christmas
Whatever it is I'll get it for you
What do you want, what do you want for your birthday
All I want, I want, want, want is...
What do you want, what do you want for Christmas
Whatever it is I'll get it for you
What do you want, what do you want for your birthday
All I want, I want, want, want is...
(Repeat to fade)

When You're In Love With A Beautiful Woman

Carry me, Carrie

What do you want, what do you want for Christmas
Whatever it is I'll get it for you
What do you want, what do you want for your birthday
All I want, I want, want, want is you

If you want a diamond ring to shine, shine, shine
Or a fancy little watch to tell the time, time, time
Every morning all I want to find, find, find is you, I said you

What do you want, whatever it is I'll get it for you
What do you want, all I want, I want, want, want is you

If you want a diamond ring to shine, shine, shine
Or a fancy little watch to tell the time, time, time
Every morning all I want to find, find, find is you, I said you

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
