Can’t Do Lyrics by Everything Everything

A Fever Dream

2017

[Verse 1]
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

[Pre-Chorus]
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 figure it out
It's up to me, it's up to me, it's up to me
I said, I said

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 2]
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

[Pre-Chorus]
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

[Chorus]
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

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Pre-Chorus]
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

[Chorus]
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

[Outro]
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
