All That I Want
Birth Control Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I work all day on a printing machine
In a dirty old factory
When I come home I don't want to fight
Just want somebody to hold me tight

I've always shown respect to you
I've never let you down
I always let you have your life
So now let me have mine

Let me have mine

All that I want is just a little care
Don't wanna dream my dreams anymore
All that I need is someone to be there
This is what I'm looking for

Where do we go if we go on like this
How is it gonna be?
So before we step into hell on earth
You'd better set me free

Set me free

All that I want is just a little care
Don't wanna dream my dreams anymore
All that I need is someone to be there
This is what I'm looking for

All that I want is just a little care
Don't wanna dream my dreams anymore




All that I need is someone to be there
This is what I'm looking for
