(apologies to the inimicable driftglass who is achingly brilliant)
-----------------
How can it be permissible

She compromise my principle, yeah yeah

That kind of love is mythical

She's anything but typical

She's a craze you'd endorse, she's a powerful force

You're obliged to conform when there's no other course

She used to look good to me, but now I find her

Simply irresistible

Simply irresistible
Simply irresistible


Her loving is so powerful, huh

It's simply unavoidable

The trend is irreversible

The woman is invincible


She's a natural law, and she leaves me in awe

She deserves the applause, I surrender because

She used to look good to me, but now I find her

Simply irresistible

Simply irresistible

Simply irresistible she's so fine, there's no tellin' where the money went
Simply irresistible she's all mine, there's no other way to go

She's unavoidable, I'm backed against the wall
She gives me feelings like I never felt before

I'm breaking promises, she's breaking every law



She used to look good to me, but now I find her

Simply irresistible
She's so fine, there's no tellin' where the money went
Simply irresistible she's all mine, there's no other way to go

Her methods are inscrutable

The proof is irrefutable, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

She's so completely kissable, huh
Our lives are indivisible

She's a craze you'd endorse, she's a powerful force

You're obliged to conform when there's no other course

She used to look good to me, but now I find her

Simply irresistible
Simply irresistible

She's so fine, there's no tellin' where the money went
Simply irresistible she's all mine, there's no other way to go

She's so fine, there's no tellin' where the money went
Simply irresistible she's all mine, there's no other way to go
