MC5 Lyrics
Stone Temple Pilots
No you don't get
No you don't want it
No you don't get it, no
No you don't get
No you don't want it
No you don't get it, no
She don't like the way she smiles
He don't like the way she smiles
Son of a bitch
I know what the itch is like
You won't get enough
She don't like the way she smiles
(Don't want you)
He don't like the way she smiles
(Don't need you)
She don't like the way she smiles
(Can't have you)
He don't like the way she smiles
(I want)
No you don't get it
You'll never get it
No you don't get it
I want to see through you
No you don't get it
You'll never get it
No you don't get it
I want to see through you, Now!
No you don't want it
No you don't get it, no
No you don't get
No you don't want it
No you don't get it, no
She don't like the way she smiles
He don't like the way she smiles
Son of a bitch
I know what the itch is like
You won't get enough
She don't like the way she smiles
(Don't want you)
He don't like the way she smiles
(Don't need you)
She don't like the way she smiles
(Can't have you)
He don't like the way she smiles
(I want)
No you don't get it
You'll never get it
No you don't get it
I want to see through you
No you don't get it
You'll never get it
No you don't get it
I want to see through you, Now!
