The White Stripes — Take Take Take

[Verse 1] I was sitting there in a comfortable chair And that was all that I needed Then my friend offered me a drink for us to share And that was all that I needed Well, then I felt at ease but then I'm not too hard to please I guess you couldn't call me greedy Then I was shocked to look up and see Rita Hayworth there In a place so seedy She walked into the bar with her long, red, curly hair And that was all that I needed And I said to my friend, "good god, we're lucky men Just to even see her" [Chorus] Take, take, take Take, take, take Take, take, take [Verse 2] And I could not resist, I just had to get close to her And that was all that I needed I walked and loomed around her table for a while And that was all that I needed Then I said, "I hate to bug you, ma'am, but can I have your autograph?" And that was all that I needed She pressed her lips against a white piece of paper And that was all that I needed Then I saw what she wrote, my heart is in my mouth And that was all that I needed Then she handed it to me, and I think that she could see That that was all that I needed I started to walk away but then I remembered "Hey, I forgot to get a picture" So I asked her one more time, "Could I have another favor?" That was all that I needed She was kind and posed with me then I knew my friend would see My celebrity meeting [Chorus] Take, take, take Take, take, take Take, take, take [Verse 3] She turned and said to me, "I need to go to sleep," And it seemed so mean It's almost as if she could not appreciate How cool I was being She said, "good night" and walked away and I didn't know what to say I just couldn't believe it Well, it's just not fair, I want to get a piece of hair That was all that I needed Or maybe a kiss on the cheek, I wouldn't wash it for a week That would be all that I needed But she didn't even care that I was even there What a horrible feeling
