"Something's Gotta Give" Songtext

Jenny's got a job, a cat named Jake
Thirty-one candles on her birthday cake
Next year
Thought by now she'd have a man
Two car-seats in a minivan
But it still ain't here, hey

She's been looking for Mr. Right so long
But all she's found is Mr. Wrong
And that's the pits

She's drawn a line that she won't cross
Her and time are facing off
She says, something's gotta give

[chorus]
Something's gotta give me butterflies
Something's gotta make me feel alive
And something's gotta give me dreams at night
Something's gotta make me feel alright
I don't know where it is
Yeah, but something's gotta give
Something's gotta give

Friday night she had a date
Cell phone junky, a half hour late
That's the biz, baby
She's running out the twists of fate
She's had all that she can take
She says, something's gotta give

[chorus]
Hey, something's gotta give me butterflies
Something's gotta make me feel alive
Yeah, something's gotta give me dreams at night
Something's gotta make me feel alright
I don't know where it is
Yeah, but something's gotta give

I swear, there's got to be a 'meant to be'
For me out there
Somewhere (somewhere), someday I'm gonna find
Someone, somehow, someway

Jenny's got a job, a cat named Jake
Thirty-one candles on her birthday cake next year
She thought by now she'd have a man
Two car-seats and a minivan
She says something's got
Something's got
Something's gotta

[chorus]
Something's gotta give me butterflies
Something's gotta make me feel alive
Yeah, something's gotta give me dreams at night
Something's gotta make me feel alright
I don't know where it is
Yeah, but something's gotta
I don't know where it is
Yeah, but something's gotta
I don't know where it is
Yeah, but something's gotta give
