Lyrics

Everybody want what they don't got People always want what they should not If they got nothin' or if they got a lot Everybody want what they don't got, oh Sweet Sarah Succotash saw a silver scarf Can you guess what sweet Sarah Succotash wants? She used her last penny to buy a Jack Benny album For the stupid jokes nobody got, oh Oh, I really like what my neighbor's drivin' No, I don't care how long he been strivin' I guess I just want it 'cause people think it's hot Everybody want what they don't got, oh Don't be deceived by your greedy heart It could be the devil in disguise Check the ingredients before you start One day they all could change in front of your eyes Everybody want what they don't got People always want what they should not If they got nothin' or if they got a lot Everybody want what they don't got, oh Yeah, you know, I really had my eye on that sprinkler system of yours And I was figuring since you don't ever use it
