I Can't Go For That (No Can Do) Lyrics: Daryl Hall, John Oates, Sara Allen Music: Daryl Hall Easy ready willing overtime When does it stop, where do you dare me to draw the line You got the body now you want my soul Don't even think about it say No Go Now I'll do anything you want me to I'll do almost anything that you want me to But I Can't Go For That No Can Do I can't go for being twice as nice I can't go for just repeating the some old lines Use the body now you want my soul Oo forget about it say No Go Yeah I'll do anything you want me to I'll do almost anything that you want me to But I Can't Go For That No Can Do. Mano A Mano Lyrics & Music: John Oates See a lot of people walking around and around terra firma turned them upside down too scared to reach out maybe afraid of what they'll find but a hand stuck in a pocket come up empty every time Now you better believe the writing on the wall all for one one for all woman to woman and man to man face to face heart to heart hand to hand Mano a Mano Hand to Hand Mano a Mann See a lot of people fighting for the left or the right fighting people see black or white you'd like to go your way sure I'd like to go mine but we're all in this together running out of time Woman to woman and man to man heart to heart and hand to hand set on example for all the little boys and girls for the hand that rocks the cradle can rule the world Mano a Mano Hand to Hand Mano a Mano Did It In A Minute Lyrics & Music: Daryl Hall, Sara Allen, Janna Allen When you find yourself alone and when going out is coming home you rely on "the kid" `cause there's nobody waiting around if you're not an easy mark it's a shot in the dark that hits the heart I know when it's coming (I thought so anyway) Some things stay the some and some are due for change I thought I had them all nailed down but you turned `em around You did you did it you did it you Did it in a minute it didn't take long Well I still can't say I know when a love is real or touch and go and if two can be one, who is the one two becomes am I quick enough to see when I'm ready and it's right for me say that I want it (I think so anyway) everybody always laughs at love but what they want is to be proven wrong then you came along and I did it Head Above Water Lyrics: Daryl Hall, John Oates, Sara Allen Music: Daryl Hall Oceans emotions yeah we all feel the same Afraid of undertow and great tidal wave may go under many hundred of times keep on kickin', baby throw me a line C.C. Sick, Mai de Mer Try, try, try I'm holding on, holding my Head above water It's so hard to keep my Head Above Water No never envy the big fish in da Pond It's deep and dark when all the surface is gone My kind of humor kind of keeping me dry On the horizon, water touches the sky C. C. Sick, Mal de Mer Try, try, try I'm holding on, holding my Head Above Water It's so hard to keep my Head Above Water. Tell Me What You Want Lyrics: Daryl Hall, Sara Allen Music: Daryl Hall When I look in your eyes I can see there's more than passion there Something ugly and lovely is tuning in just behind your stare Yeah, I've seen it before and I think that I'd know it anywhere So Tell Me girl What You Want I know you know Grin and bare it, no no I like what you're wearing You gotta leave it on all night As above so below so they say so can we do the Magick [sic] right Kiss and tell, when I know you so well there's no need to be polite That's right So Tell Me girl What You Want I know you know Take a position `cause you know I'm gonna listen to you Tell me Ain't no conditions, no there isn't baby ya don't have to sell me `Cause I love you and I want you tonight So Tell Me girl What You Want I know you know. Friday Let Me Down Lyrics: Daryl Hall, John Oates, Sara Allen Music: John Oates Dial your number Tape reply: "I'm not at home right now, but leave your name And I will call you Friday Night. Call you Friday good bye." Hearing you and waiting make the days drag slowly On the phone, oh no the tape again Don't say not at home, no way Friday let me down tonight Weekend comes I try again I hear the same recording Hasn't changed "I'm not at home right now. Leave your name and I will call you." Friday let me down tonight. Unguarded Minute Lyrics: Daryl Hall, John Oates, Sara Allen Music: Daryl Hall Maybe I speak too soon Maybe I play too hard and I listen to major worries in a minor way you sent your message to me Made a move that I'd understand When you moved from a ticket in line To a room in L.A. There was a time spit second I could have said please Fool around and my guard was down by a few degrees An unguarded minute has an accident in it. I guess I should have tried a little bit Yeah, I could have changed I could be anything that ya want But it wouldn't be me Do anything that you say Use any thought to armor the way So do you love them man that I am, or what you want me to be I wanna hold you now but I can let you go So anytime you can do better just let me know An unguarded minute has an accident in it I wanna hold you tight. Your Imagination Lyrics & Music: Daryl Hall I remember when I used to be the jealous kind I got over it, now you're taking over my old line You're caring too much about what I say You're wondering too much about what I do And baby, Your Imagination Imagination's got the best of you I ain't doin' nothing that you could really say was wrong Just one oversight and no that didn't last too long Listen, you're caring too much about what I say You're wondering too much about what I do And baby, Your Imagination Imagination's got the best of you Don't know what you're looking for What's this thing about "true blue" You know I ain't no danger boy You're the one I like to touch, touch you, you When the mood is right, change the light and the moment's gone Better turn around, `cause the light doesn't last too long You're caring too much about what I say You're wondering too much about what I do And baby, Your Imagination Imagination's got the best of you Imagination, Your Imagination Imagination, Use Your Imagination. Some Men Lyrics & Music: Daryl Hall Some Men call half way around the world if they've got a phone game to play Then again some men call their mom every day Old boys drink bad beer and throw the cans out in the street Playboys sit and sip red wine, some drink malt whiskey neat So if you can, you talk about Some Men If you can, you can talk about Some Men Baby if you can, you can talk about Some Men If you can, you can talk about Some Men Colonels collect animal heads and hang their guns up on the wall Corn balls watch television then pull a gun out in the hall Crew-cut rainbows hang on streets hoping they'll find a friend Odd balls running fast enough hope that they won't find their end So if you can, you can talk about Some Men Baby if you can, you can talk about Some Men Sleep all night work all day Work all night sleep all day Drink all night sick all day Sick all night drink all day Dream all night if you can We ain't soldiers so don't Generalize No categories because it takes all kinds You can sleep all night you can work all day You can trip all night peak all day If you can, you can talk about Some Men
