Bilingual
I've had my way with so many girls
And it was lots of fun
My system was to know many girls
To keep me safe from one
I find it can't be done
(Frank)
You comin' with us?
We'll paint the town red, Frank
Sorry, fellas, I can't make it
Gettin' engaged tonight!
(What?!)
My defenses are down
She's broken my resistance
And I don't know where I am
I went into the fight like a lion
But I came out like a lamb
My defenses are down
She's got me where she wants me
And I can't escape, no how
I could speak to my heart when it weakened
But my heart won't listen now
Like a toothless, clawless tiger (ooh)
Like an organ grinder's bear (ah)
Like a knight without his armor
Like Samson without his hair
My defenses are down
I might as well surrender for the battle can't be won
But I must confess that I like it
So there's nothing to be done
Yes, I must confess that I like it
Bein' miserable
Is gonna be fun
(His defenses are down)
I went into the fight like a lion
(But you came out like a lamb)
My defenses are down
(You might as well surrender for the battle can't be won)
But I must confess that I like it
So there's nothing to be done
(Yes, you must confess that you like it)
Bein' miserable
Is gonna be fun
Yeah
