We Don't Wanna Go for It Songtext
von The Bellamy Brothers

In these days, when sex is like a handshake
We still cling to the old-fashioned ways
While men fight women
Going up the corporate ladder

We′re holding hands in some dark matinee
It's so competitive and so cutthroat
But when it comes to keeping up
You know we miss the boat

We don′t want to go for it
We don't grab a gust of sun
We don't have a favorite beer
Our team isn′t number one

We don′t want to go for it
We don't want the pain or the gain
We just want to lay back
And make love slowly


We should have been born
In the Renaissance, my darling
Back when real romance ruled supreme
This quickie stuff is all right for the masses
, but we love the way that others only dream

If it lasts a week for them
That′s usually enough
Honey, ain't you glad
That ain′t the way we measure our love?

We don't want to go for it
. We don′t grab a gust of sun
We don't have a favorite beer
Our team isn't number one

We don′t want to go for it
We don′t want the pain or the gain
We just want to lay back
And make love slowly

We don't want no promotion
Don′t want to step up our pace
Don't want to run like a dirty rat
In that old rat race


We don′t want to go for it
We don't grab a gust of sun
We don′t have a favorite beer
Our team isn't number one

We don't want to go for it
We don′t want the pain or the gain
We just want to lay back
And make love slowly

We just want to lay back
And make love slowly
