When You Can't Get What You Want

Daniel wanted to ride on the Trolley
But Mom said no (no, no, no, no)
She wanted to walk to the castle
And he had to go

When you don't get what you want
Just stomp three times (stomp three times)
The you'll feel so much better
Stomp three times and you'll feel fine

When you don't get what you want
Stomp three times
To help yourself feel better (feel better)

Prince Wednesday couldn't play with his puzzle
He had to put it away
There was no time to do it
But he wanted to play

When you don't get what you want
Just stomp three times (stomp three times)
The you'll feel so much better
Stomp three times and you'll feel fine

Sometimes you really want to play (oh yeah)
But find that you can't always have your way
I want a toy truck from the toy store
But when mom says no it makes me want to roar

When you don't get what you want
Stomp three times
To make yourself feel better

You might see something you can't do without
Then when you can't have it all you want to do is shout
I want to play and keep swinging all day
But I get really mad when I cannot stay

When you don't get what you want
Stomp three times
To make yourself feel better
