I can mark time walk a straight line

Grab a mad bull by the nose

I can stand still on an ant-hill

And not once get itchy toes

I can even for no reason

Be as nice as I am rude

But I can't get you to love me

I just can't get you to love me

What do I do?



I can stand up put my hand up

Where perhaps it shouldn't be

I can go down to a hoe-down?

Have one hell of a yippee!

I can also if you must know

Do whatever else I choose

But I can't get you to love me

I just can't get you to love me

What do I do?



All of my life I've been waiting

For a moment like this

And now that I've found it

You know something's amiss

Can't get you to love me...



I can tell tales hammer toe-nails

Write a letter to the Queen

I can easily and discreetly

Be as charming as obscene

When I feel light



I can take a fight

But I know one thing for sure

I just can't get you to love me

I just can't get you to love me

What do I do?
