The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I, I'll do anything that you want me to, yeah
Easy, ready, willing, overtime
Where does it stop where do you dare me to draw the line
Use the body now you want my soul
Oo, forget about it no say no go
Yeah, I, I'll do anything that you want me to, yeah
I'll do almost anything that you want me to, yeah
But I can't go for that, no, no can do
I can't go for that, no, no can do
I can't go for that, no, no can do
I can't go for that, can't go for that
Can't go for that, can't go for that
I can't go for being twice as nice
I can't go on for just repeating the same old line
Use the body now you want my soul
Oo, forget about it now say no go
Yeah, I, I'll do anything that you want me to, yeah
I'll do almost anything that you want me to, yeah
But I can't go for that, no, no can do
I can't go for that, no, no can do
I can't go for that, no, no can do
I can't go for that, can't go for that
Can't go for that, can't go for that
Yeah, I, I'll do anything that you want me to, yeah
I'll do almost anything that you want me to, yeah
But I can't go for that, no, no can do
I can't go for that, no, no can do
I can't go for that, no, no can do
I can't go for that, can't go for that
Can't go for that, can't go for that
Jump into you're eldy just like a swimming pool
Head first to quench for thirst but ended up the fool
Stay cool I wish that I could
But I can't so I shan't
Keep giving it all that I got to give
And that's a hell of a lot of a plan
Why can't you see that I'm the man
Our love coulda been great
But a mistake is what you made
My cuisine you're dissin the plate
Never the giver just the taker
Take a listen to the the fact, in fact
Can't go for that
Yeah, I, I'll do anything that you want me to, yeah
I'll do almost anything that you want me to, yeah
But I can't go for that, no, no can do
I can't go for that, no, no can do
I can't go for that, no, no can do
I can't go for that, can't go for that
Can't go for that, can't go for that
