both ways

I want the world without
Ever having to leave my house
I want answers that don't
Require any figuring out
And I want cake looking pretty on a plate
But I also want it in my mouth
Untouched, unscathed
Uncut, unaged
Can't I have it
Have it both ways?
Can't I have it both ways?
Both ways
Have it both ways?
Can't I have it both ways?
Both ways
I want true love but I
Don't really want to compromise
To atone for my sins without doing a thing
Or changing too much about my life
And I wanna dance like nobody is watching
But I can always feel a pair of eyes
Withdraw, engage
Erase, engrave
Can't I have it
Have it both ways
Can't I have it both ways?
Both ways
Have it both ways?
Can't I have it both ways?
Both ways
When I'm down, pull you close
When I'm good, let you go
When I'm warm, treat you cold
Won' t you let me have it
Be the light in the dark
Be your friend, play the part
Hold your hand, break your heart
I know I can have it
Both ways
Both ways
Both ways
Can't I have it both ways?
Both ways
Have it both ways?
Can't I have it both ways?
Both ways
Can't I have it both ways?
Have it both ways?
Can't I have it both ways?
Both ways
Have it both ways?
Can 't I have it both ways?
Both ways
Can't I have it both ways?
