Andrew Lloyd Webber i never get what i pray for

Select language to translate this lyric

I wanna be baptised and I wanna be SAVED
I wanna see my saviour face to face
I wanna feel the rapture, feel the fire
I wanna be taken someplace higher
But I never get taken to someplace higher
Swallow!
Well I don't!
I never get what I pray for
I can pray for less or a whole lot more
It don't ever matter, it's a sure BET
That I never get what I pray for
An end to the horrors of the atom bomb
And a dance with Ricky Nelson at the homecoming prom
I wanna be beautiful, sexy and smart
I wanna sister that don't hiccup
I want a brother that don't fart
I wanna move like Elvis in every way
I wanna look like Sandra Dee or maybe Doris Day
They should send us down some angels
We could never have enough
They should send us down some MONEY
So we can buy each other stuff.
I never get what I pray for
I can pray for less or a whole lot more
It don't ever matter, it's a sure bet
That I never get what I pray for
We should all be praying for dad
It's scary how he's been
He was crying in the trailer
No way I was going in
I want a football
and some Lipstick
And some Liquorice
and a kite
And I just want our mother back, If only for one night
There are things she's gotta tell me
There are things she's gotta know
God had no right to take her, She had no right to go
There are things I didn't tell her
And so much I had to say
So I just want my mother back
If only for one day
