whatever it is, i just can't stop
Written by Jay Kay and Toby Smith If I pick it up I can put it down, Whatever it is I just can't stop, For only 20 seconds at a time it's all mine. I got, too much, pressure, Got me under it's thumb And it's no fun, you can lose Now I got a choice but I can't choose Insistent as you are, is no guarantee that you'll go far Rock steady if you can But I've never been a steady man, People, wanna shoot you down, If you can't swim then you will drown In sorrow, can't get any medical attention till tomorow, Sadlands, are where I live, But that's none of your business, You keep asking, and soon enough The kids gonna have to get rough, Maybe I'm a speed king Push with the foot and I'm smiling, I can glide on the love inside, And there was you thinking that my hands were tied All along I saw you hoping I would slip and I'm not joking The evidence in these events Is still your lack of commonsense Did you really think that I would sink Because I like another drink Have to get up to get down The remedy is the sound Absurdity of your suggestion, leaves me asking just one question, If you're my friend today? Why do you wanna hear me say? If I pick it up, can I put it down?.
