When an irresistible force such as you
Meets an old immovable object like me
You can bet just as sure as you live
Something’s gotta give
Something’s gotta give
Something’s gotta give
When an irrepressible smile such as yours
Warms an old implacable heart such as mine
Don’t say no because I insist
Somewhere, somehow
Someone’s gotta be kissed
So, en garde, who knows what the fates might have in store
From their vast mysterious sky
I’ll try hard ignorin’ those lips that I adore
But how long can anyone try?
Fight, fight, fight, fight, fight it with all of our might
Chances are some heavenly star-spangled night
We’ll find out just as sure as we live
Something’s gotta give
Something’s gotta give
Something’s gotta give
Fight, fight, fight it with all of your might
Chances are that some heavenly star-spangled night
We’ll find out just as sure as we live
Something’s gotta give
Something’s gotta give
Something’s gotta give
Something’s gotta give
Something’s gotta give
Aw, let’s tear it up
