All That We Want
ALL THAT WE WANT
His face is pressed up against the window, staring at the lights,
Wondering how it all can seem so bright, wondering how to make it his tonight,
He knows it’s time to take his place, time to join the human race.
It’s time to leave his happy home, but he feels so all alone,
Even now he feels so scared and his judgment it’s impaired.
You’re gonna get there sooner or later, boy,
Your fate is waiting for you right behind that door so start knocking.
All that we want is all that we want, and all that we want is everything,
And we want it now.
Standing outside the door now, he only needs one step.
He’s never been the kind to wonder why, never had the courage to defy,
Never been inclined to raise his hand, never been prepared to make his stand,
But he knows it’s never or it’s now, got to find that strength somehow,
But he still looks so confused. Boy, you know it’s all on you.
You gotta step out on your own now, boy.
The world can be yours, just like your favorite toy, just gotta take it.
All that we want is all that we want, and all that we want is everything,
And we want it now.
All that we want is all that we want, and all that we want is everything,
And we want it now.
