BON JOVI - All I Want Is Everything lyrics

rate me

Some 15 year old kid sits on his porch, just half-past noon<br>Trying to figure out just what he's doing<br>Why he had to grow up so soon<br>With all the gangs, all the guns-watcha gonna learn in school<br>There's got to be some way out of here<br>He says man, this life is cruel<br><br>I knew this puerto rican girl who lied to change her life<br>She changed her name<br>Her face because the grass looked greener on the other side<br>She turned her back, she ran away straight into the night<br>Her friends, her family feel the pain, but she's the one who cries<br><br>Tell me what you want<br>Tell me what you need<br>I want everything<br><br>I've had enough of havin' nothing, I won't take just anything<br>I got my mind set on something, all I want is everything<br>It's my life mr. - I ain't running, I'm no puppet on a string<br>I want more than I see coming<br>All I want is everything<br>All I want is everything<br><br>My next door neighbor donnie<br>Died in his room just the other day<br>His brother come home<br>Found him dead on the floor with a needle in his vain<br>Cops come down with a body bag<br>They said donnie was a casually<br>I said, all it's about is the boy checked out<br>He couldn't handle reality<br><br>Tell me what you want<br>Tell me what you need<br>I want everything<br><br>I've had enough of havin' nothing, I won't take just anything<br>I got my mind set on something, all I want is everything<br>It's my life mr. - I ain't running, I'm no puppet on a string<br>I want more than I see coming<br>All I want is everything<br>All I want is everything
