What Do I Get? Songtext
von Buzzcocks

I just want a lover like any other
What do I get?
I only want a friend who′ll stay to the end
What do I get?

What do I get, oh-oh-oh
What do I get?
What do I get, oh-oh-oh
What do I get?

I'm in distress, I need a caress
What do I get?
I′m not on the make, I just need a break
What do I get?

What do I get, oh-oh-oh
What do I get?
What do I get, oh-oh-oh
What do I get?


I only get sleepless nights
Alone here in my half-empty bed
For you, they seem to turn out right
I wish they'd only happen to me instead

What do I get, oh-oh-oh
What do I get?
What do I get, oh-oh-oh
What do I get? Oh

I only get sleepless nights
Alone here in my half-empty bed
For you, they seem to turn out right
I wish they'd only happen to me instead

What do I get, oh-oh-oh
What do I get?
What do I get, oh-oh-oh
What do I get?

I just want a lover like any other
What do I get?
I only want a friend who will love to the end
What do I get?


What do I get, oh-oh-oh
What do I get?
What do I get, oh-oh-oh
What do I get?
Well, let me tell you now

(What do I get?)
(What do I get?)
(What do I get?) I get no love
(What do I get?) I get no sleep at nights
(What do I get?) I get nothing that′s nice
(What do I get?) I get nothing at all, at all, at all
At all, at all, at all, at all ′cause I don't get you
