How can it be permissible, she compromised my principles, (yea yeah),
That kind of love is mythical, she's anything but typical.

She's a craze you'll endorse, she's a powerful force,
You're obliged to conform, when there's no other course.
She used to look good to me but now I find her...
Simply irresistible...Simply irresistible.

Her lovin' is so powerful, (HUH) - It's simply unavoidable, (Wo-Wo),
The trend is irreversible, the woman is invincible.

She's a natural law and she leads me in awe,
She deserves the applause I surrender because,
She used to look good to me but now I find her...
Simply irresistible...Simply irresistible

She's so fine, there's no telling where the money went
She's all mine, there's no other way to go.

(Drums) She's unavoidable, I'm backed against the wall,
She gives me feelings that I've never felt before,
I'm breakin' promises, she's breakin' every law
She used to look good to me but now I find her...
Simply irresistible...Simply irresistible.

She's so fine, there's no telling where the money went
She's all mine, there's no other way to go.

Her methods are inscrutable, the proof is irrefutable (Um-Um),
She's so completely kissable, (HUH), our lives are indivisible (yea-yeah).

She's a craze you'll endorse, she's a powerful force,
You're obliged to conform, when there's no other course.
She used to look good to me but now I find her...
Simply irresistible...Simply irresistible.

She's so fine, there's no telling where the money went
She's all mine, there's no other way to go.

She's so fine, there's no telling where the money went
She's all mine, there's no other way to go.

Simply irresistible
