You can't argue with death Can't break a burly sailor's neck You can't drink lava from plastic glasses And you can' t influence the masses You can't tune a radio to heaven You can't live seven lives You can't win money at the horses And you can't fight the armed forces
Shake your head Shake your head Shake your head Shake your head Let's got to bed
Head [Repeat x4]
You can't feed the hungry Can't talk Shakespeare to a monkey You can't stand the bomb And there's no way to stay calm You can't sue Buddha for libel You can't rewrite the Bible You can't hit homers like Babe Ruth And can't put your finger on the truth
Shake your head Shake your head Shake your head Shake your head Let's got to bed
Oh, ah
And you can't influence And you can't influence And you can't influence Mmm, let's go to bed
You can't sing underwater You can't have the boss' daughter You can't make missiles out of mud You can't purify bad blood You can't feed the hungry You can't pretend to have fun You can't read a robot's mind And you can't expect vultures to be kind
Shake your head Shake your head Shake your head Shake your head Let's go to bed Let's go to bed Ooh let's go to bed
