Everything She Wants Lyrics

Somebody told me "Boy, everything she wants Is everything she sees" I guess I must have loved you Because I said you were the perfect girl for me, baby And now I'm six months older And everything you are and everything you see Is out of reach not good enough I don't know what the hell you want from me Somebody tell me Why I work so hard for you (To give you money) Some people work for a living Some people work fun Girl I just work for you They told me marriage was a give and take Well you show me you can take you've got some givin' to do And now you tell me that your having my baby I'll tell you that I'm happy if you want me to But one step further and my back will break If my best isn't good enough And how can it be good enough for two I can't work any harder than I do Somebody tell me Why I work so hard for you (To give you money) Why do I do the things I do Can you tell my why? Yea My god, I don't even think that I love you Somebody tell me Why I work so hard for you (To give you money) Somebody tell me Why I work so hard for you (To give you money) How could you settle For a boy like me When all I can see Is the end of the week All the things we sign And the things we buy Ain't gonna keep us together It's just a matter of time My situation Never changes Walking in and out of that door Like a stranger For the wages I give you all You say you want more And all I can see Is the end of the week All the things we sign And the things we buy Ain't gonna keep us together Girl it's just a matter of time

Meaning of Everything She Wants

“Everything She Wants” captures a heartbreaking sense of futile devotion and the widening gap between love and expectation. The narrator is trapped in a cycle of relentless effort, desperately trying to provide for a woman who seems perpetually unsatisfied, constantly demanding “everything she sees.” He’s sacrificing his time and resources, driven by a misguided belief that hard work and material gifts will earn her affection, yet she remains distant and critical, questioning his motives and ultimately rejecting him. The song reveals a profound loneliness and confusion – he doesn't understand why she wants so much, or even if he truly loves her. Wham!’s plea, “Somebody tell me,” underscores the narrator’s desperate need for answers, highlighting the tragic irony of loving someone who can never fully reciprocate his devotion, leaving him feeling utterly lost and unappreciated.
