What You Got Lyrics

(La-la-la-la-la-la-la)
(Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh)
(La-la-la-la-la-la-la)
(Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh)

I found I lost my way
I got nowhere to go
Nowhere to go
For how hard I try
I can't move past
What I know
What I know

If you only do what you've always done
You only get what you always got
And time won't make you what you're not
Time won't be the change
And I see it almost every day
How people waste their lives away
You only get what you always got

(La-la-la-la-la-la-la)
(Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh)
(La-la-la-la-la-la-la)
(Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh) only get what you got
(Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh) what you got
(Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh)

And day by day I see
People as they come and go
Come and go
For how hard they try they
Can't move past
What they know
What they know

And I'll wait
To go back slowly
If you'll take me there

If you only do what you've always done
You only get what you always got
And time won't make you what you're not
Time won't be the change
And I see it almost every day
How people waste their lives away
You only get what you always got

(La-la-la-la-la-la-la)
(Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh)
(La-la-la-la-la-la-la)
(Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh) only get what you got
(Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh) what you got
(Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh)

(La-la-la-la-la-la-la)
(Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh)
(La-la-la-la-la-la-la)
(Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh) only get what you got
(Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh) what you got
(Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh)
