These are the correct lyrics to the song:

Tell me what you wanted Tell me what you wanted Tell me, tell me

She's the one never gets what she wanted She's the one doesn't get what she does have Got a daughter with the eyes of a genius Who's got a mother, don't matter That's where it all breaks down

Mommy dearest, kinda Vegas, she's a freak scene Over-rated, unrefined, she's a dope fiend No one stays, wonder why, she's a bad dream Someone wake me up it's hot as hell here

I don't wanna go where there's smoke and mirrors Take me to the desert where air is clear I'd rather hang out on the strip with the cokehead queers Then take an order from a killer Your atmosphere is rotten You may want me but I don't want you back

She's a drag, kind of lame, leaves a bad taste After hours prop her up, she's in outer space Get some balls, be a pro, be a man Wanna get there faster but she can't come down

Hey, I don't wanna go where there's smoke and mirrors Take me to the desert where air is clear I'd rather hang out on the strip with the cokehead queers Then take a lesson from a loser Your atmosphere is rotten You may want me but I don't want you back You may need me but I don't need you back You may love me but I don't love you back

Tell me what you wanted Tell me what you wanted Tell me what you wanted Tell me, tell me

I don't wanna go where there's smoke and mirrors Take me to the place where the coast is clear I'd rather hang out on the strip with the cokehead queers Then take an order from a killer Your atmosphere is poison

I don't wanna go where there's smoke and mirrors Take me to the desert where air is clear I'd rather hang out on the strip with the cokehead queers Then be a traitor to my gender I'm outta here

Oh oh oh, smoke and mirrors
