Artist/Band: Rick Astley
Lyrics for Song: What You See Is What You Don't Get
Lyrics for Album: Keep It Turned On [2002]



Don't know what you've got, not till you lose it

You had my love but you only abused it

I've had enough of all your excuses and lies



You can look but don't you touch

You played around girl, much too much

You had it all but you gave it up, it's too late, too late, too late



What you see is what you don't get

You had your chance and then you blew it

I was the one you never knew it

Now it's time to forget, forget, forget



What you see is what you can't have

You're missing out and that is too bad

I was the one who had the last laugh

And all you've got is regret, regret, regret



I made up my mind, showed your true colors

One of a kind? No, you're just like the others

I'm saying, goodbye to all your excuses and lies



And now there's nothing left to say

So why are you standing in my way?

And don't go begging me to stay, it's too late, too late, too late



What you see is what you don't get

You had your chance and then you blew it

I was the one you never knew it

Now it's time to forget, forget, forget



What you see is what you can't have

You're missing out and that is too bad

I was the one who had the last laugh

And all you've got is regret, regret, regret



What you see is what you don't get

Are you a fool or have you got it yet?

You had it all and then you threw it all away



What you see, you don't get

You had your chance and then you blew it

I was the one you never knew it

Now it's time to forget, forget, forget



What you see is what you can't have

You're missing out and that is too bad

I was the one who had the last laugh

And all you've got is regret, regret, regret



What you see is what you don't get

You had your chance and then you blew it

I was the one you never knew it

Now it's time to forget, forget, forget



What you see is what you can't have

You're missing out and that is too bad

I was the one who had the last laugh

And all you've got is regret, regret, regret



What you see is what you don't get

You had your chance and then you blew it

I was the one you never knew it

Now it's time to forget, forget, forget



What you see is what you can't have

You're missing out and that is too bad

I was the one who had the last laugh

And all you've got is regret, regret, regret



What you see is what you don't get

You had your chance and then you blew it

I was the one you never knew it

Now it's time to forget, forget, forget



What you see is what you can't have

You're missing out and that is too bad

I was the one who had the last laugh

And all you've got is regret, regret, regret


What You See Is What You Don't Get

Rick Astley's 'What You See Is What You Don't Get' serves as a poignant companion to his 1987 hit 'Never Gonna Give You Up,' reflecting on the complexities of modern relationships. Released on the 2002 compilation 'Keep It Turned On,' the track utilizes a polished pop production that mirrors the era's glossy aesthetic while addressing themes of deception and emotional vulnerability. The song's narrative explores the disconnect between perception and reality, a subject that resonates deeply within Astley's broader discography. By weaving together catchy melodies with introspective lyrics, the recording stands as a testament to his ability to blend commercial appeal with genuine emotional storytelling, cementing his status as a versatile artist who consistently delivers high-quality pop music across decades.
