  • Just give me a glimpse, I have to know
    Just give me the business end to go
    I wanna be done by twenty-to-four
    Oh show me the bones under the floor in your room
    Have I awoken something sleeping in you?
    That was the future on the phone
    He said it's up to me

    It's up to me, it's up to me, it's up to me
    I've gotta try it again
    It's up to me, it's up to me, it's up to me
    I've gotta figure it out
    It's up to me, it's up to me, it's up to me
    I said, I said

    Help me I can't do the thing you want
    Can't do the thing you want
    Can't do the thing you want
    Help me I can't do the thing you want
    Can't do the thing you want
    Can't do the thing you want

    I'm loving the bass, I'm loving the drums
    I cannot imagine how to be wrong
    Dear life, dear life, dear life, dear life
    But that was the horror on the phone

    He said it's up to me, it's up to me, it's up to me, it's up to me
    I gotta try it again
    It's up to me, it's up to me, it's up to me
    I gotta rip it apart
    It's up to me, it's up to me, it's up to me
    I said, I said

    Help me I can't do the thing you want
    Can't do the thing you want
    Can't do the thing you want
    Help me I can't do the thing you want
    Can't do the thing you want
    Can't do the thing you want
    Help me I can't do the thing you want
    Can't do the thing you want
    Can't do the thing you want
    Help me I can't do the thing you want
    Can't do the thing you want
    Can't do the thing you want

    It's up to me, it's up to me, it's up to me, it's up to me
    Just wanna be on my own
    It's up to me, it's up to me, it's up to me
    I gotta rip it apart
    It's up to me, it's up to me, it's up to me
    I said, said

    I can't do the thing you want
    Can't do the thing you want
    Can't do the thing you want
    Help me I can't do the thing you want
    Can't do the thing you want
    Can't do the thing you want
    Help me I can't do the thing you want
    Can't do the thing you want
    Can't do the thing you want
    Help me I can't do the thing you want
    Can't do the thing you want
    Can't do the thing you want

    Can't do the thing you want
    Can't do the thing you want
    Can't do the thing you want
    Just wanna be on my own
    Can't do the thing you want
    Can't do the thing you want
    Can't do the thing you want
    Just wanna be on my own Writer/s: Alexander Kaines Robertshaw, Jeremy Joseph Pritchard, Jonathan Joseph Higgs, Michael David Spearman
