You Can't Always Get What You Want

They might not stock what you need
e,g. The Stones 1969 album Let It Bleed

And they may not have what you want
A sixties miniskirt by Mary Quant?

But you can definitely buy a bright brolly
With a handle that's yellow or blue

And maybe a headscarf will suit you?
Perhaps a black jacket will too?

Do you fancy a yellow-horned creature?
Or a bag that looks like a phone?

Plastic sunflowers (at only 3 quid)
Are they something you'd like to own?

What about that thing hanging up there
It could be a coat or a rug?

With it wrapped around you in winter
I'm certain you'd feel very snug

So, before the shutters come down
And it's time for you to leave town

Inspect the table, rifle the rack
And if you're still disappointed

Ask what they've got round the back.
