irving berlin – my defenses are down lyrics

frank butler:
i’ve had my way with so many girls
an’ was lots of fun.
my scheme was to know many girls
to keep me safe from one
i find it can be done.
my defenses are down
she’s broken my resistance
and i don’t know where i am
i went into the fight like a lion
but i came out like a lamb.
my defenses are down
she’s got me where she wants me
and i can’t escape no how
i could speak to my heart when it wakened
but my heart won’t listen now.
like a toothless, clawless tiger,
like an organ-grinder’s bear,
like a knight without his armor,
like samson without his hair.
my defenses are down
i might as well surrender
for the battle can’t be won.
but i must confess that i like it,
so there’s nothing to be done.
yes, i must confess that i like it
being miserable’s gonna be fun

male chorus:
his defenses are down
she’s broken my resistance
and he’s in an awful jam.

frank butler:
i went into the fight like a lion

male chorus:
but you came out like a lamb.

frank butler:
my defenses are down

male chorus:
she’s got you where she wants you
and you can’t escape no how

frank butler:
i could speak to my heart when it wakened

male chorus:
but my heart won’t listen now.

frank butler:
like a toothless, clawless tiger,
like an organ-grinder’s bear,
male chorus:
like a knight without his armor,

frank butler:
like samson without his hair.
my defenses are down

frank butler and male chorus:
i might as well surrender
for the battle can’t be won.

frank butler:
but i must confess that i like it,
so there’s nothing to be done.

frank butler and male chorus:
yes, i must confess that i like it
being miserable’s gonna be fun
