There you go down again

To that place you say you often bend

There you go with all of your woes

And your demons and angels and heavenly flowers Back to the start, you wipe off your slate

And you may think you're clean

But some stains won't erase For every drop that falls from above

You say this is a sign of what I'm thinking of

Of what I'm thinking of Everyone's looking

For something, for something

Everyone's trying

To get some satisfaction Oh my God, just confess

You want it, you want it

You're just like the rest

Oh dear child, don't deny

You need it, you need it

For your alibi There you go with all of your wounds

And your cuts and your scars

And your burns and your bruises Your history is dark and your past is long

Poor ol' you, everything went wrong Your mother, your father

Your brother, your friend

They ain't smart as you

'Cause they don't understand They didn't do the work

And they didn't think through

I don't speak to them like I speak to you

Like I speak to you Everyone's looking

For something, for something

Everyone's trying

To get some satisfaction Oh my God, just confess

You want it, you want it

You're just like the rest

Oh dear child, don't deny

You need it, need it

For your alibi All the stars around

Become blocked in your mind

Just so you could justify

Oh my God, I don't care

You're talkin', talkin'

And there's nothing there Ooh

Ooh Did you ever care?

Did you ever ask?

Did you ever think perhaps

You're not first or last

First or last, first or last Everyone's looking

For something, for something

Everyone's trying

To get some satisfaction Ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh
