YOU CAN'T BE TOO STRONG
Graham Parker
Did they tear it out with talons of steal?
And give you a shot so that you couldn't feel?
And wash it away as if it wasn't real?
Well it's just a mistake I won't have to face
Don't give it a name, don't give it a place
Don't give it a chance - it's lucky in a way
It must have felt strange to have found me inside you
I hadn't intended to stay
If you want to keep it right
Put it to sleep at night
Squeeze it until it could say
You can't be too strong
You decide what's wrong
Well I ain't gonna cry, I'm going to rejoice
And shout myself dry and go see the boys
They'll laugh when I say I left it overseas
Yea babe I know it gets dark down by Luna Park
But everybody else is squeezing out a spark
That happened in the heat, somewhere in the dark
The doctor gets nervous completing this service
It's out of his gloves and no head
He fumbles the light switch
It's just another minor hitch
Wishes to God he was dead
But you can't be too strong
You decide what's wrong
You can't be too rough, too tough, too right, too wrong....
