Better Back Off |
Now you can’t always get what you want |
No, you can’t always get what you need |
Sometimes you lose what you thought you had |
Now that’s a real bad deal indeed |
But when you’re angry at life itself |
Having a bad, bad day |
Don’t judge yourself so brutally |
I can’t stand it when you talk that way |
Oh baby, baby |
Better back off of that stuff |
You’d better take it slow |
I know you know |
That you’re talking about someone I love |
Did you say what I think I heard? |
Did you mean what I think you said? |
Why don’t you redirect your rage |
Onto someone else instead |
Now, we all have to walk that line |
Between sorrow and happiness |
Come over here and take my hand |
Won’t you please give us both a rest? |
Oh baby, baby |
Better back off that stuff |
You’d better take it slow |
I know you know |
That you’re talking about someone I love |
Oh baby, baby |
I’ve heard enough |
'Cause I know you will come through |
And you know it too |
You’re talking about someone I love |
