Whatever You Want Lyrics

Whatever you want, whatever you like
Whatever you say, you pay your money
You take your choice, whatever you need
Whatever you use, whatever you win, whatever you lose

You're showing off, you're showing out
You look for trouble turn around give me a shout
I take it all, you squeeze me dry
And now today you couldn't even say goodbye

I could take you home
On the midnight train again
I could make an offer you can't refuse

Whatever you want, whatever you like
Whatever you say, you pay your money
You take your choice, whatever you need
Whatever you use, whatever you win, whatever you lose

You're showing off, you're showing out
You look for trouble turn around, give me a shout
I take it all, you squeeze me dry
And now today you couldn't even say goodbye

I could take you home
On the midnight train again
I could make an offer you can't refuse

Whatever you want, whatever you like
Whatever you say, you pay your money
You take your choice, whatever you need
Whatever you use, whatever you win
Whatever you lose, whatever you want
