[00:18.31] Written by Jay Kay and Toby Smith [00:19.04] If I pick it up I can put it down, [00:21.72] Whatever it is I just can't stop, [00:24.17] For only 20 seconds at a time it's all mine. [00:27.71] I got, too much, pressure, [00:31.35] Got me under it's thumb [00:33.19] And it's no fun, you can lose [00:35.33] Now I got a choice but I can't choose [00:38.19] Insistent as you are, is no guarantee that you'll go far [00:42.55] Rock steady if you can [00:44.46] But I've never been a steady man, [00:47.91] People, wanna shoot you down, [00:50.28] If you can't swim then you will drown [00:53.67] In sorrow, can't get any medical attention till tomorow, [00:56.59] Sadlands, are where I live, [01:01.61] But that's none of your business, [01:03.50] You keep asking, and soon enough [01:05.32] The kids gonna have to get rough, [01:06.99] Maybe I'm a speed king [01:09.06] Push with the foot and I'm smiling, [01:12.52] I can glide on the love inside, [01:14.53] And there was you thinking that my hands were tied [01:17.55] All along I saw you hoping [01:19.60] I would slip and I'm not joking [01:22.01] The evidence in these events [01:24.24] Is still your lack of commonsense [01:26.40] Did you really think that I would sink [01:29.04] Because I like another drink [01:31.22] Have to get up to get down [01:33.77] The remedy is the sound [01:36.41] Absurdity of your suggestion, leaves me asking just one question, [01:41.73] If you're my friend today? [01:43.82] Why do you wanna hear me say? [01:46.43] If I pick it up, can I put it down? [01:49.11] Whatever it is, I just can't stop. (repeat) [01:51.67]
