Can't Get Loose

[Verse 1]

What makes him stand and fight

When he only wants to love?

And why do they push so hard

When he only needs a shove?

Every time I see him give

It's his turn to take

Every time I see him go

Everybody says to wait, ooh

[Chorus]

Can't get loose, you can fight like hell

But you can't get loose, you can dream

But you can't get loose, it's holdin' on, holdin' on

Can't get loose, oh, no, no

[Verse 2]

What makes one man rich?

How's another man get so poor?

What makes someone care so much

For things another man can just ignore?

Some questions go unanswered

And they have for quite some time

Some things forever sacred

We're just prisoners of our own mind, oh

[Chorus]

Can't get loose, we can fight like hell

But we can't get loose, we can dream

But we can't get loose, keeps on holdin' on, holdin' on

Can't get loose, shake it, shake it

Can't get loose

[Bridge]

Oh yeah, there she sits with stars in her eyes

But too afraid to dance

'Cause every guy that she holds so close

Just wants to get in her pants, oh yeah

Can't get loose

Can't get loose

Can't get loose

Can't get loose

[Verse 3]

Tell me what keeps her by his side

When she's treated just like dirt

The fear of the dark unknown

Appears to be much worse than the hurt

So she stays up nights and dreams

Of a knight in shining armor

Who will rescue her one day

While time keeps going against her? Ooh

[Chorus]

Can't get loose, yeah, you can fight like hell

But you can't get loose, you can dream

Oh, but you can't get loose, keeps on holdin' on, holdin' on

Can't get loose, shake, shake

Can't get loose, yeah, just fight like hell

But you can't get loose, keeps on holdin' on, holdin' on

And you can't get loose, oh, no, no

I know you can't get loose, you can shake it, shake it

Can't get loose, I know you fight like hell

But you can't get loose, yeah, you can dream

Ooh, but you can't get loose, go on and fight like hell

But you can't get loose, shake, shake, shake it, shake it, shake it

But you can't get loose, ooh

Can't get loose

Can't get loose, ooh

Can't get loose

Yeah, can't get loose
