What You See Is What You Get

I'm a puzzle

I'm a walking contradiction

And far from mint condition

'Cause there's pieces I can't find

Sometimes trouble

A can of cope, a day addiction

With set in stone convictions

And a no bend bottom line

I'm an easy read but I ain't no open book

Got a knack for making things harder than they look

I'm a straight shootin'

Beer drinkin', rule breakin'

Don't think I won't take a good thing too far

I'm a midnightin', backslidin'

Getaway car drivin'

Runnin' away with your heart

I guess, be careful what you wish for, is all I meant when I said

What you see is what you get

At least I'm honest

I don't spin it like a record

And I ain't acting like I'm better

Than you know I really am

Yeah, you're dead on it

You got me figured, I'll admit it

Set in my ways hard-headed

But hell, I do the best I can

I'm a straight shootin'

Beer drinkin', rule breakin'

Don't think I won't take a good thing too far

I'm a midnightin', backslidin'

Getaway car drivin'

Runnin' away with your heart

I guess, be careful what you wish for, is all I meant when I said

What you see is what you get

With me ain't no tricks up these sleeves

An acquired taste, a constant work in progress

I'm a straight shootin'

Beer drinkin', rule breakin'

Don't think I won't take a good thing too far

I'm a midnightin', backslidin'

Getaway car drivin'

Runnin' away with your heart

I guess, be careful what you wish for, is all I meant when I said

What you see is what you get

What you see is what you get

What you get baby
