lyrics & music by Erja Lyytinen
You´re always going after something new
You need to feel the thrill of a breakthrough
Cannot feel complete until you get
What is on the other side of the fence
You wanna, you wanna have everything she has
You wanna, you wanna be that guy´s match
You won´t be satisfied until you have it all
Smell the roses bitch
The world you live in don´t exist
You can´t rule all this
Stop wanting something you can´t have
Smell the roses bitch
The world you dream of don´t exist
You can´t rule all this
Stop wanting something you can´t have
Incapable of standing in the queue
Yesterday´s winnings just old news
Need more action, dropping verbal bombs
But nothing helps, you keep feeling numb
You wanna, you wanna have everything he has
You wanna, you wanna be everybody´s match
You won´t be satisfied until you have it all
Smell the roses bitch
The world you live in don´t exist
You can´t rule all this
Stop wanting something you can´t have
Smell the roses bitch
The world you dream of don´t exist
You can´t rule all this
Stop wanting something you can´t have
Ain´t it so wonderful
To feel the beauty of the world
Finding something meaningful
Stop hanging on a minor chord
Ain´t it so wonderful
To see the beauty of the world
Even though you have it all
Will you ever learn?
You wanna, you wanna have everything he has
You wanna, you wanna be everybody´s match
You won´t be satisfied until you have it all
Smell the roses bitch
The world you live in don´t exist
You can´t rule all this
Stop wanting something you can´t have
Smell the roses bitch
The world you dream of don´t exist
You can´t rule all this
Stop wanting something you can´t have
Smell the roses bitch
You can´t rule all this
Smell the roses bitch
You can´t rule all this
Stop wanting something you can´t have
