Satisfaction Lyrics

I've been giving you love,
You've been giving me pain and sorrow,
I've been giving you love,
And I was hoping your love would follow,

But now it seems,
I'm just another quarter in your offering,
Now it seems,
I'm just a victim in your schemes,

So, what's it gonna take?
How many hearts you gonna break,
'Fore you find satisfaction?
You're like a snake,
Let me eat your fruit,
And then you shoot, shoot,
Till you find satisfaction,
Satisfaction,
Satisfaction,

I've been giving you love,
You've been giving me nothing but excuses,
I've been giving you love,
And you've been giving me conjugal visits,

But now it seems,
That I'm just another quarter in your offering,
Now it seems,
I'm just a victim in your schemes,

So, what's it gonna take?
How many hearts you gonna break,
'Fore you find satisfaction?
You're like a snake,
Let me eat your fruit,
And then you shoot, shoot,
Till you find satisfaction,
Satisfaction,
Satisfaction,

Now it seems,
I'm just another quarter in your offering,
Now it seems,
I'm just a victim in your schemes,

So, what's it gonna take?
How many hearts you gonna break,
'Fore you find satisfaction?
You're like a snake,
Let me eat your fruit,
And then you shoot, shoot,
Till you find satisfaction,

What's it gonna take?
How many hearts you gonna break,
'Fore you find satisfaction?
You're like a snake,
Let me eat your fruit,
And then you shoot, shoot,
Till you find satisfaction,
Satisfaction,
Satisfaction,
Satisfaction, yeah,
Ooh, yeah,

When you gonna find satisfaction?
When you gonna find satisfaction?
When you gonna find satisfaction?
When you gonna find satisfaction? yeah,
Oh, satisfaction,
When you gonna find?
When you gonna get satis-, satisfaction?
Satisfaction,

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
You gonna get it,
You're gonna get it,
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
You gonna get it,
You're gonna get it,

Girl, you ain't nothing but a snake, girl,
You ain't nothing but a snake, baby,
You ain't nothing but a snake, baby,
You ain't nothing but a snake, no,

When you gonna find satisfaction?
When you gonna find satisfaction?
When you gonna find, gonna find? oh,
Satisfaction, oh,
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
Oh, oh, oh, yeah,
When you gonna find satisfaction?

From backwoods barbecues and community gatherings; Allen Stone emerges to share personal melodies, telling his tales of life after just 24 years. Getting his start singing at his father's church in small-town America; it wasn't until later when introduced to the greats of soul music (Marvin Gaye, Aretha Franklin) and then to the confessional lyrical fashion of the 60's -70's singer/ songwriters, did music begin to ignite intense passion, eventually carrying this boy to a musical home.

Stone was born in Chewelah, Washington, a small town about 45 minutes north of Spokane with a population of approximately 1,500 people. When Allen was 18, he moved from his home town to Spokane, Washington, where he attended community college for a semester followed by Bible School. Not long after, he moved to Seattle, Washington.

He has self-released two records, "Last To Speak" (2010) and the self-title sophomore release "Allen Stone" (2011).

On his self-titled sophomore album - an independent self-release which hit digital shelves October 4, Allen has pushed his sound and lyricism to a greater level of noted individuality. It touches upon a range of styles and themes. Integrating classic soul, catchy pop hooks, r&b beats and folk roots with lyrical matters of testimonial broken relationships, poisonous politics and the age-old topic of simple, pure celebration. Stone's music is notable for his finely crafted evocative songs and a fresh, smooth, soul-filled voice-one that certainly belies his age.

Allen Stone has shot up the R&B/Soul charts on iTunes, peaking at the number 2 spot, and hit #29 and #62 on the Billboard Heatseekers and R&B/Hip Hop Album charts, respectively, and has garnered national praise - USA Today called him a "pitch-perfect powerhouse" - all without any support of a label, publisher, or publicist.

Stone's soulful sound has been compared to Stevie Wonder and Prince. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
