Joe Jackson - Too Tough lyrics

I know you think that I protest too much I'm like a Diva with the tragic touch But if I wanna hide from the pouring sun It has to be alright And I can have my pride, but I'll turn and run When a fool would stand and fight And if I try – hard enough To do or die – and push and shove I know that I would be too tough Too tough to fall in love With you You've really gotten underneath my skin Must have been easy, it was always thin So if I wanna cry in the burning rain Don't worry, I'll survive But even when you're high, I can feel your pain That's what I call being alive So if I fall – I'll get back up And there'll be tears – and blood and stuff Still I stand tall – but not too tough Too tough to fall in love With you And I can see your point of view But I can't see a way to be tough too Tough too You know I hate it when you talk this way 'Cause you don't listen to a word you say And it took a lot of time to grow your shell Maybe enough's enough And I could tell you why you should go to hell But I don't want to be that tough And if I try – hard enough To do or die – and push and shove I know that I would be too tough Too tough to fall in love With you
