Lyrics
'I Just Can't Do It ' - Words & Music by Mark S. Ludes (MSL)
V.1
I just can't be everything, everything for everyone
I just can't do everything, everything that needs to be done
I just won't be anything, anything but what you see.
I just can't be everything, everything you need me to be.
V.2
I'm not gonna be, be the one, the one to take a fall.
When it's not my back, not my back, that's up against the wall.
Chorus:
I just can't do it....no,no,no
No, I just won't do it anymore
I just can't do it, no I won't
No, I just can't do it no more.
Don't ask me to do it, please just don't
'Cos if you ask me to do it, well, you know I won't
And don't ask me what I'd do it for
'Cos I just don't do it anymore.
Solo:
V.3
When people change, change their mind, it's no big deal
But if I change, I change mine, it's like a poison pill.
.... Been playin' to the crowd, done tryin' to please.
.... Just seems impossible, got me down, down on my knees.
Chorus:
I just can't do it....no no no
No, I just can't do it no more
Don't ask me to do it, please just don't
'Cos I just won't do it anymore.
I just can't do it anymore
I just can't do it anymore.....
