U Can't Stop Me
Basement Jaxx · Remedy
I got sixteen seconds, and I don't wanna stop
I got no time for the present, living on a spinning top
I got Satan on the TV
I got God in a frame
I say hello for a second then you won't see me again
I am happy, I am sad, I can be most anything
I'm a scary motherf***er, I'm the future on a spin
I got sixteen seconds and I don't wanna stop
I got no time for the present, living on a spinning top
Can't stop me, can't stop me...
(You can't stop me, you can't stop me...)
Oh, ba-de-dup-ba-da-ba-de-dup-ba-de-dup...
I got sixteen seconds, and I don't wanna stop
I got no time for the present, living on a spinning top
I got a fast food store selling poison, selling rocks
Spaghetti open in my head, I'm living in the aftershock
I am happy, I am sad, I can be most anything
I'm a scary motherf***er, I'm the future on a spin
I got sixteen seconds and I don't wanna stop
I got no time for the present, living on a spinning top
Can't stop me, can't stop me...
(You can't stop me, you can't stop me...)
Oh, ba-de-dup-ba-da-ba-de-dup-ba-de-dup...
Doh-doh-doh-doh-doh...
Can't stop me, can't stop me...
(You can't stop me, you can't stop me...)
Oh, ba-de-dup-ba-da-ba-de-dup-ba-de-dup...
I got no time for the present, living on a spinning top
I got Satan on the TV
I got God in a frame
I say hello for a second then you won't see me again
I am happy, I am sad, I can be most anything
I'm a scary motherf***er, I'm the future on a spin
I got sixteen seconds and I don't wanna stop
I got no time for the present, living on a spinning top
Can't stop me, can't stop me...
(You can't stop me, you can't stop me...)
Oh, ba-de-dup-ba-da-ba-de-dup-ba-de-dup...
I got sixteen seconds, and I don't wanna stop
I got no time for the present, living on a spinning top
I got a fast food store selling poison, selling rocks
Spaghetti open in my head, I'm living in the aftershock
I am happy, I am sad, I can be most anything
I'm a scary motherf***er, I'm the future on a spin
I got sixteen seconds and I don't wanna stop
I got no time for the present, living on a spinning top
Can't stop me, can't stop me...
(You can't stop me, you can't stop me...)
Oh, ba-de-dup-ba-da-ba-de-dup-ba-de-dup...
Doh-doh-doh-doh-doh...
Can't stop me, can't stop me...
(You can't stop me, you can't stop me...)
Oh, ba-de-dup-ba-da-ba-de-dup-ba-de-dup...
