When an irresistible force such as you   Meets an old immovable object like me   You can bet just as sure as you live      Something's gotta give   Something's gotta give   Something's gotta give      When an irrepressible smile such as yours   Warms an old implacable heart such as mine   Don't say no because I insist      Somewhere, somehow   Someone's gotta be kissed      So, en garde, who knows what the fates might have in store   From their vast mysterious sky   I'll try hard ignorin' those lips that I adore   But how long can anyone try?      Fight, fight, fight, fight, fight it with all of our might   Chances are some heavenly star-spangled night   We'll find out just as sure as we live      Something's gotta give   Something's gotta give   Something's gotta give      Fight, fight, fight it with all of your might   Chances are that some heavenly star-spangled night   We'll find out just as sure as we live      Something's gotta give   Something's gotta give   Something's gotta give      Something's gotta give   Something's gotta give      Aww, let's tear it up
