Whatever It Is, I Just Can't Stop - Jamiroquai

Written by Jay Kay and Toby Smith 

If I pick it up I can put it down, 
Whatever it is I just can't stop, 
For only 20 seconds at a time it's all mine. 
I got, too much, pressure, 
Got me under it's thumb 
And it's no fun, you can lose 
Now I got a choice but I can't choose 
Insistent as you are, is no guarantee that you'll go far 
Rock steady if you can 
But I've never been a steady man, 
People, wanna shoot you down, 
If you can't swim then you will drown 
In sorrow, can't get any medical attention till tomorow, 

Sadlands, are where I live, 
But that's none of your business, 
You keep asking, and soon enough 
The kids gonna have to get rough, 

Maybe I'm a speed king 
Push with the foot and I'm smiling, 
I can glide on the love inside, 
And there was you thinking that my hands were tied 
All along I saw you hoping 
I would slip and I'm not joking 
The evidence in these events 
Is still your lack of commonsense 
Did you really think that I would sink 
Because I like another drink 
Have to get up to get down 
The remedy is the sound 
Absurdity of your suggestion, leaves me asking just one question, 
If you're my friend today? 
Why do you wanna hear me say? 

If I pick it up, can I put it down? 
Whatever it is, I just can't stop. (repeat)
