Lyrics:

Somebody told me
Boy everything she wants is
everything she sees
I guess I must have loved you
'cause I said you were the
perfect girl for me, baby

And now we're six months older
And everything you want and
everything you see
Is out of reach, not good enough
I don't know what the
hell you want from me

Everything she wants
Everything she needs
It's just a matter of time
I say,
Everything she wants
Everything she needs
It's just a matter of time

Somebody tell me
(won't you tell me)
Why I work so hard for you
(To give you money,
work to give you money)

Is everything that she needs
Is everything that she wants

Some people work for a living
Some people work for fun
Girl I just work for you
They told me marriage was a give and take
Well you've shown me you can take
You've got some giving to do
And now you tell me that
your having my baby
I'll tell you that I'm
happy if you want me to
But one step further and
my back will break
If my best isn't good enough
How can it be good enough for two

Everything she wants
Everything she needs
It's just a matter of time
I say,
Everything she wants
Everything she needs
It's just a matter of time

Somebody tell me
(won't you tell me)
Why I work so hard for you
(To give you money, work
to give you money)

Is everything you want
Everything that you need

How could you settle
For a boy like me
When all I could see
Was the end of the week
All the things that we sign
The things that we buy
Ain't gonna keep us together
Girl, it's just a matter of time

My situation
Never changes
Walking in and out of that door
Like a stranger
For the wages
I give you all
You say you want more

And all I could see
Was the end of the week
All the things that we sign
The things that we buy
Ain't gonna keep us together
Girl, it's just a matter of time

Everything she wants
Everything she needs
It's just a matter of time
I tell you,
Everything she wants
Everything she needs
It's just a matter of time

Somebody, somebody
Tell me why, tell me why

Tell me
Somebody, somebody
Tell me why, I say
Time
