Lyrics

Think It Over

Every time I see you I got to jump and shout

I haven't got a clue what it's all about

Ooh I never had a dream that looked so much like you

I'll do anything that you want me to

(Think it over, think it over)

There's nothin' you can do to make me wanna stop

(Think it over, think it over)

Ooh every time you run around it makes me want to pop

What's it gonna take to make you change your line?

What's it gonna take to get your valentine?

How can I be sure that you're the one for me?

I only know that you wanted to be free

(Think it over, think it over)

There's nothin' you can do to make me wanna stop

(Think it over, think it over)

Every time you run around it makes me want to pop

Nothin' you can do to make me wanna stop

Every time you run around makes me want to pop

Nothin' you can do to make me wanna stop

Think it over

Pop (echo)

Pop

Every time I see you I got to jump and shout

I haven't got a clue what it's all about

I never had a dream that looked so much like you

Well I'll do anything that you want me to

(Think it over, think it over)

There's nothin' you can do to make me wanna stop

(Think it over, think it over)

Every time you run around it makes me want to pop

(Think it over, think it over)

Well nothin' you can do to make me wanna stop

(Think it over, think it over)

E-every time you run around it makes me want to pop

There's nothin' you can do to make me wanna stop

Every time you run around it makes me want to pop

There's nothin' you can do to make me wanna stop

Think it over

Yeah

(Think it over)

(Think it over)

(Think it over)

Think it over

(Think it over)

Think it over

(Think it over)

(Think it over)

Think it over

(Think it over)

(Think it over)

Nothin' you can do

Nothin' you can do

(Think it over)

Nothin' you can do

Nothin' you can do

(Think it over)

Nothin' you can do

Nothin' you can do

(Think it over)

You gotta think it over

Nothin' you can do

Nothin' you can do

(Think it over)

Nothin' you can do

Think it over

Nothin' you can do

(Think it over)

Nothin' you can do

Nothin' you can do

(Think it over)

Nothin' you can do but think it over

Nothin' you can do

Nothin' you can do

(Think it over)

Nothin' you can do

Nothin' you can do

(Think it over)

Nothin' you can do, nothin' you can do

Nothin' you can do, nothin' you can do

But think it over

(Think it over)

Nothin' you can do

Nothin' you can do
