MICHAEL: 
(recording) 
Yeah, yeah, ah 
Now I'm just wonderin', ah, why you think, uh 
That you can get to me, uh, with anything? 
Nah 
Seems like you'd know by now when and how I get down, nah 
And with all that I've been through, ah, I'm still around 
Don't you ever make no mistake 
Baby, I got what it takes 
And there's no way, you'll never get me 
(Come on, uh) 
And why can't you see that you'll never, ever hurt me? 
'Cause I won't let it be, see, I'm too much for you, baby 
(Take on) 
You can't believe it, ah 
You can't conceive it 
And you can't touch me, ah 
'Cause I'm untouchable 
And I know you hate it, ah 
And you can't take it 
You'll never break me, ah 
'Cause I'm unbreakable 
Doo-doo-dah 
Oh, dah, ah, a-da, well, ah, ah 
Now you can't stop me, nah, even though you think, ah 
That if you block me, ah, you've done your thing, ah 
And when you bury me underneath all your pain 
I'm steady laughin', hah, while surfacing 
Don't you ever make no mistake 
Baby, I've got what it takes (Yeah) 
And there's no way, you'll never get me (You can't do it, baby) 
And why can't you see that you'll never ever hurt me? (Come on) 
'Cause I won't let it be, see, I'm too much for you baby (I'm too much for you, baby) 
You can't believe it, ah 
You can't conceive it
And you can't touch me, ah
'Cause I'm untouchable
And I know you hate it, ah
And you can't take it 
You'll never break me (You can't break me), ah 
'Cause I'm unbreakable 
You can't believe it (Yeah, unbreakable) 
Ah, you can't conceive it 
And you can't touch me (You can't touch me) 
Ah, 'cause I'm untouchable (Why do you do it, baby?) 
And I know you hate it (Come on, now), ah 
And you can't take it (Yeah) 
You'll never break me 
You can't stand it, because I'm unbreakable...
