Everything She Wants Lyrics

Oh yeah

Somebody told me
"Boy, everything she wants is everything she sees"
I guess I must have loved you
Because I said you were the perfect girl for me, baby
And now we're six months older
And everything you want and everything you see
Is out of reach, not good enough
I don't know what the hell you want from, ooh

Somebody tell me, ooh
Why I work so hard for you?
All to give you money
All to give you money, ouh

Some people work for a living
Some people work for fun
Girl, I just work for you
You told me marriage was a give and take
Well, show me you can take you've got some giving 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
One step further and my back will break
If my best isn't good enough
Than how can it be good enough for two?
I can't work any harder than I do

Somebody tell me, ooh
Why I work so hard for you?
All to give you money
All to give you money, ouh

Ouh
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

Ouh
All to give you money
All to give you money, ooh, yeah
Tell me, tell me, tell me

How could you settle for a boy like me,
When all I could see was the end of the week
All the things we sign
And the things we buy
Ain't gonna keep us together
Girl, it's just a matter of time

It's just a matter of time

Somebody tell me, ooh
Somebody
Why I work so hard for you?
All to give you money
All to give you money

Somebody tell me, ooh
Somebody
Why I work so hard for you?

Cover art for Everything She Wants lyrics by George Michael

He gives her everything she ever wanted. All she has to do is ask. She falls in love with him and marries him. She thinks he must be very rich, but really, he's working very hard to give her everything she asks for, so she thinks he's rich. She tells him she's pregnant. Now, instead of just telling her No on some of her lavish requests, he tells her he doesn't know if he even loves her. This is every woman's worst nightmare: "Mr. Right" who runs away as soon as she's pregnant. She gave him everything she had, love, marriage, a baby, but he's tired of giving everything he has. He's selfish. The woman who asks her man for everything she sees is not selfish because he can always just tell her No.
