Lyrics

You know that feeling stepping out of a gym Nothing short of ecstatic I like to think that if I did a bit more I too would be good at it Ooh, we all have a duty to keep ourselves fit And much as I do what I can with this figure Every time I look, it gets bigger But you can't say (eh-eh) I didn't try Oh, you can't say (eh-eh) I didn't try Oh, you can't say (eh-eh) even if at best What I'm doing's less Could it be that less could be more? You may have noticed if I step out of line I'm the first to admit it I'm not impervious to something in pine If instructions are with it But when it comes to the real task of asking you out While I admit that for all my endeavours You can knock me down with a feather But you can't say (eh-eh) I didn't try Oh, you can't say (eh-eh) I didn't try Oh, you can't say (eh-eh) even if it means Doing what it is seems Maybe not be going my way Messrs willing and able have mislaid our plans And much as I've searched every nook, every cranny As of yet I haven't found any But you can't say (eh-eh) I didn't try Oh, you can't say (eh-eh) I didn't try Oh, you can't say (eh-eh) Doesn't matter if it requires a lift If a lift is what it takes See that lady with the world at her knees She's got eyes in her navel Spots a bag she's so determined to keep And with a bank loan she's able You can't set me a challenge I should in effect easily manage But let's say in trying If I got it right, I'd be lying But you can't say (eh-eh) I didn't try Oh, you can't say (eh-eh) I didn't try Oh, you can't say But if all else fails (what do I do) Be it heads or tails (what do I choose) With the way the wind blows It could be blowing my way, eh-eh, eh
