Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You can cake your face in makeup, dress yourself in silk
Pour sugar in your coffee, chocolate in your milk
You can fake a smile to make it through the day
But you can't shake your shadow away
[Verse 2]
You can swat a mosquito, pop a balloon
Clean out the clutter, you can rearrange the room
Organize the records, and pick a side to play
But you can't shake your shadow away
[Bridge]
Shakin', shakin', shake and shake
Shakin', shakin', you can shake all day
But you can't shake your shadow
[Bridge]
Shakin', shakin', shake and shake
Shakin', shakin', you can shake all day
[Verse 3]
You can grow a garden if you got the bees
You can cool an afternoon if you got the freeze
The sunshine may blind you, but behind, you'll still find gray
'Cause you can't shake
You can't shake
Can't shake your shadow away
[Outro]
Can't sh—, you can't shake
You can't shake your shadow
