| | You Can't Do Me Lyrics Artist(Band):Madeleine Peyroux
(becker/klein/peyroux) You can’t do me, you can’t do me, you can’t do me the way you did before − You can’t do me, you can’t do me, you can’t do me the way you did before − ’Cause when you do, and when you do, ’cause when you do, you know I get so blue! When you do, and when you do, ’cause when you do, you know I get so blue and I go Down like a deep sea diver, out like a Coltrane tenor-man, Lost like a Chinese war baby − gone, gone, gone! Blewed like a Mississippi sharecropper, screwed like a high-school cheerleader, Tattooed like a popeyed sailorman − gone, gone, gone! I should have been, I should have been, I should have been a pair of ragged claws. I should have been, I should have been, I should have been a pair of ragged claws. And for a while, for just a while, for a good long while you’d see me smile, smile, smile I’d crawl the seas on my bony knees, no apologies for my brave new style. I wouldn’t go Bust like an internet millionaire, boom like a Lebanese belly-dancer, Bang like a new year’s firecracker − gone, gone, gone! I wouldn’t get Bent like a rattan rockin’ chair, blanked like a last place also ran, Burned like an Arkansas griddlecake − gone, gone, gone! I should have been, I should have been, I should have been a pair of ragged claws. And if I was, if I was, if I was then I’d complain no more. And for a while, for just a while, for a good long while you’d see me smile, smile, smile. I’d crawl the seas, on my bony knees, no apologies for my brave new style. I wouldn’t get − Wrecked like a rebel on a racetrack, jacked like a ’51 Cadillac, Macked like a bunny in a mansion − gone, gone, gone! Spitooned like an Alabama ’backy wad, harpooned in a Melville sailor yard, Cartooned like a Charlie Brown Christmas card − gone, gone, gone! Schooled like a milk money bully whip, sued like a teenage downloader, Unglued like a bull in a china shop − gone, gone, gone! Cranked like a speed freak high-roller, yanked like a little league ball swatter, Spanked like a fly on a bar counter − gone, gone, gone! Duked like a pistol whipped card swapper, rebuked like a Bible Belt border crosser Juked like a payola chart topper − gone, gone, gone!
