Lyrics
When an irresistible force such as you Meets an old immovable object like me You can bet just as sure as you live Somethin's gotta give Somethin's gotta give Somethin's gotta give

When an irrepressible smile such as yours Warms an old implacable heart such as mine Don't say no, 'cause I insist Somewhere, somehow, someone's gonna get kissed

So, en garde, who knows what the fates have in store? From their vast mysterious sky? I'll try hard ignorin' those lips I adore But how long can anyone try?

Fight, fight, fight, fight it with all of our might Chances are some heavenly star-spangled night We'll find out as sure as we live Somethin's gotta give Somethin's gotta give Somethin's gotta give
