I Cannot Get You Out Of My System lyrics

Song information

Artist: Newsboys
Album: Not Ashamed

Lyrics

Oi. boy. got a new gig?
It's jammin' your brain
Like a too-tight wig
Stuff this new religious phase
Your home is here
In the yellow haze

Oi. boy. what are you doin'?
Wearing your faith like a new tattoo when friends and formers
Don't approve this

(Steelo pads will not remove this.)

Chorus
I cannot get you, I do not want
You out of my system
I cannot get you, I do not want you
Out of my head

Oi. boy. what are you on?
We'd try to help you but you're
Too far gone
First we thought you'd be rejecting us
Now we're scared you'll start infecting us

Oi. boy. come again
Someday soon it'll all sink in
As all your efforts to inspire us
Spread like some computer virus

- chorus -

Always stalled by hidden fears
Always stuck in neutral gears
Until I gave the driver's seat away
Take my life and make it real
Turn the key and take the wheel
Push the throttle through the floor
Evermore..

- chorus -
