[Hook - Neon Trees] You are never gonna get Everything you want in this world First things first Get what you deserve [Verse 1- Neon Trees] It began when I was twenty-one years old And my mom and dad were begging me to go So I left a note and we went and hit the road Me and Chris and all the stuff I own I went out to find my soul And left the only comfort that I know It wasn't about a girl or even California bleeding It was all about me choosing where to go And I sing [Hook - Neon Trees] You are never gonna get Everything you want in this world First things first Get what you deserve You are never gonna get Everything you want in this world First things first Get what you deserve [Verse 2- Neon Trees] There were years I felt like everything was new Long before the troubles of my youth There were days and nights I couldn't see the end And I swear the music was my only friend You learn to lie about forgiveness When you choose to let down all your pride I don't wanna be so famous I just want to sing until I die So sing it [Hook - Neon Trees] You are never gonna get Everything you want in this world First things first Get what you deserve You are never gonna get Everything you want in this world First things first Get what you deserve When I wish upon a star I'll tell it how I got this far [Bridge] [Verse 3 - Neon Trees] It began when I learn how to face myself And I'm still deciding if I'm something else I'm a million different people all the time But there's only one of me to get it right (I'm gonna get it right, I'm gonna get it right) [Hook - Neon Trees] You are never gonna get Everything you want in this world First things first Get what you deserve You are never gonna get Everything you want in this world First things first Get what you deserve You are never gonna get Everything you want in this world First things first Get what you deserve You are never gonna get Everything you want in this world First things first Get what you deserve
