You Can't Get What You Want

This is a famous song from Joe Jackson:

------------------------------------------
But, on a side note, Joe Jackson was famous for another song from the end of '70s that tells a life story we all know pretty well.

Ma Joe Jackson era famoso per un'altra canzone della fine degli anni '70 che racconta una storia di vita che tutti noi conosciamo bene:
------------------------------------------

Pretty women out walking with gorillas down my street
From my window I'm staring while my coffee grows cold
Look over there! (Where?)
There's a lady that I used to know
She's married now, or engaged, or something, so I am told

Is she really going out with him?
Is she really gonna take him home tonight?
Is she really going out with him?
'Cause if my eyes don't deceive me,
There's something going wrong around here

Tonight's the night when I go to all the parties down my street.
I wash my hair and I kid myself I look ***really*** smooth
Look over there! (Where?)
Here comes Jeanie with her new boyfriend
They say that looks don't count for much
If so, there goes your proof

Is she really going out with him?
Is she really gonna take him home tonight?
Is she really going out with him?
'Cause if my eyes don't deceive me,
There's something going wrong around here

But if looks could kill
There's a man there who's marked down as dead.
Cause I've had my fill
Listen you, take your hands off her head
I get so mean around this scene

Is she really going out with him?
Is she really gonna take him home tonight?
Is she really going out with him?
'Cause if my eyes don't deceive me
There's something going wrong around here

Edit: I just edited this very old post to change the Youtube link and nice MyOpera has changed the post date like I have written it right now. Note to myself: editing post changes the post date. Second note to myself: bomb MyOpera. I hate them.

I hadn't listened to a Joe Jackson's song. This was the first time. I really liked it.

There are two songs here.
Anyway, I plan to sing "is she really going out with him?" each time I see girls flirting with Dimitris :smile:
