What I Want
BUTLER Will Lyrics

Tell me what you want babe and I will get it
Please communicate your desires to me and I will try my best to fulfill them.

Though it might take three to five business days, maybe longer
The timeframe to fulfill your desires may vary and could take several days or longer.

I forget 'cause my head's in a bit of a haze
I am experiencing confusion or mental fog and may have trouble remembering certain things.

Since I let you down I don't know where I am going,
I feel lost or uncertain about my direction in life after disappointing you.

I don't know where I lost my shoes
I am unsure about the location of my footwear.

I'm distracted by this one, particular shade of blue.
I am currently preoccupied by a specific hue of blue, possibly indicating an emotional state.

I bet you're wondering if I remember,
You may be questioning whether or not I recall certain details from the past.

Oh well I remember just about everything
Despite some haziness, I am able to recall most details from past experiences.

Except what time it was,
The only information I cannot recall is the specific time of a past event.

And where we were oh, and one more thing.
I am also unsure of our past location and may have one more detail to clarify.

I will tell you what I want, what I wanted to say
I am willing to honestly express my desires and thoughts to you.

I will tell you if it's okay, if it's okay, if it's okay.
I will check with you to see if my desires and thoughts are acceptable before proceeding.

If you come and take my hand I will buy you a pony.
If we engage in physical affection, I am willing to go to great lengths (such as purchasing a pony) to please you.

We can cook it, for supper
We can prepare the pony to eat for dinner.

I know this great recipe for pony macaroni.
I am knowledgeable about a recipe for preparing pony meat in a macaroni dish.

Later on we can walk the beach,
At a later time, we can take a walk along the beach.

Oh you know that we can walk along the waves out to Greenland
We can potentially walk in the water up to Greenland, although this is unlikely to occur.

You can bury me there in an ice grave
If something were to happen to me, you could potentially bury me in a grave made of ice in Greenland.

I'm so hot these days but sometimes oh,
I may be feeling attractive or confident lately, but there may also be moments of insecurity.

I get, so cold I've been told
I am prone to feeling emotionally cold or distant, as per advice I have received from others.

It's a side effect from staring into the sun too long.
My emotional coldness may be related to the physical phenomenon of staring at the sun for too long.

If you told me that there was a war I would fight for you.
If there were a conflict or battle of some sort, I would be willing to fight in support of you.

If you told me that there was a war,
I am emphasizing my willingness to fight for you in different scenarios, using a hypothetical example of a war.

I would fight till we're all free,
I would persist in fighting for as long as it took for our collective freedom to be achieved.

Until we were all free
I would only stop fighting once everyone had achieved freedom.

I said what about Tuesday night are you free?
I am inquiring about your availability on a specific night of the week.

My body's not prepared for this,
I may not be physically or emotionally ready for something.

I can feel my heart beat out of my chest,
I am experiencing a heightened or intense emotional response, possibly indicating nervousness or excitement.

I apologize if I get heart blood all over
I express remorse in advance for any potential mess or disruption I may cause.

Your nice floral dress but it's not my fault so don't blame me,
I am indicating that any potential mess or disruption is not my fault and should not be blamed on me.

Don't blame me, don't blame me, don't blame me 'cause it's not my fault it's your fault!
I am repeating my position that any potential mess or disruption should not be attributed to me.

Now I'm not saying that we should rush this,
I am suggesting that we do not need to hurry or rush any particular activity or decision.

I'm not suggesting that we should start having kids but maybe,
I am not proposing that we start a family at this time, but I am open to the possibility.

We could think about getting a dog or a fish tank or a jar of squids
As alternatives to starting a family, we could consider adopting a pet or acquiring an unusual decorative item.

Or maybe just a chicken coop full of Alligators
As another alternative, we could contemplate the idea of keeping a chicken coop filled with alligators.

I will go along with whatever you say.
Ultimately, I am willing to follow your lead and participate in activities or decisions that you suggest.

I'm not a details man I just wanna,
I am not particularly concerned with specific details or logistics, and instead focus on broader goals or motivations.

Hang around and maybe get a chance
My primary objective is to spend time with you and possibly engage in further physical affection.

To hold your hand don't tell me I've, made a mistake.
I desire the opportunity to hold your hand and I hope this does not represent an error or mistake on my part.

I will tell you what I want, what I wanted to say
Once again, I am committed to expressing my true desires and thoughts to you.

I will tell you if it's okay, if it's okay
I will confirm with you whether or not my desires and thoughts are acceptable.

I will tell you if it's not too late, if it's not too, not too late
I will determine whether or not it is still possible to pursue the desired action, and communicate this information to you.

And I will tell if it's okay if it's okay
Once again, I will confirm with you whether or not my desires and thoughts are acceptable.

If it's okay, if it's okay
Overall, I am open to suggestions and willing to pursue activities or decisions that are acceptable to you.
