Marilyn Monroe song and dance number "After You Get What You Want You Don't Want It" from her 23rd movie "There's No Business Like Show Business" 1954
You get what you want, you don't want it
If I gave you the moon, you'd grow tired of it soon
You're like a baby, you want what you want when you want it
But after you are presented
With what you want, you're discontented
You're always wishing and wanting for something
When you get what you want, you don't want what you get
And though I sit upon your knee, you grow tired of me
Because after you get what you want, you don't want what you wanted at all
Changeable, you've got a changeable nature
Always, always changing your mind
There's a longing in your eye, hard to satisfy
And here's the reason why
After you get what you want, you don't want it
If I gave you the moon, you'd grow tired of it soon
You're like a baby, you want what you want when you want it
But after you are presented
With what you want, you're discontented
You're always wishing and wanting for something
When you get what you want, you don't want what you get
And though I sit upon your knee, you grow tired of me
Because after you get what you want, you don't want what you wanted at all
Baby, I don't mean to make you blue, but you need a talking to
Because after you get what you want, you don't want what you wanted at all
