I can't help it if they love me
Can't stop the applause
I can't help it all
It's been this way so long
It's not my fault (No)
I can't help it when the crowds go crazy
Throwing flowers all over the stage
It's been like this for years
It's not my fault (No)
A walking contradiction
One could think the praise is my only ambition - my only mission
That's not true at all; it's not my fault (No)
I'd prefer that things were simple (Not you!)
And live a more quiet life (Can't be true!)
But every time I see an exit
The great white way shines her light
And I'd prefer that time moved slowly (Pick it up!)
Enjoy the moments we prize (Go go go!)
But every time I move out that door
The crowd begs for just one more encore
Tossing and turning, I can't sleep at night (Please, please!)
I guess I'll give what they like
I can't help it if they love me (Love you!)
Can't stop the applause (Yeah!)
It's been this way so long
Can't help it all
It's not my fault
No!
It's not what I want
I can't help it if they love me (We love you!)
And I can't stop the applause (Yeah!)
Been this way since I stepped into this life
This whole world is mine
Yeah, I know it's been this way so long
No it can't be my fault
I can't help it when they keep calling my name (We love you!)
I can't help it all; I can't help it at all, ohh!
