It Just Won't Do
MC Mario Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

La, la, la etc.

My eyes, that cannot see
other guys that are cuter.
And my ears they cannot hear
my friends say
I should walk away
But my heart, it won't obey
it won't do, without you
I doubt my heart, it won't obey
it just wont do, without you

My knees they don't go weak
they don't go giddy-up
when you don't call me
And my head
it does not spin
so don't try me, with your sweet nothings

But my heart, it won't obey
it won't do, without you
I doubt my heart, it won't obey
it just wont do, without you

My mind is buggin' out
when I think you're it
see me run
lucky lil´ split
And my toes watch them curl
don't call me babe cause I ain't your little girl

But my heart, it won't obey
it won't do, without you
I doubt my heart, it won't obey
it just wont do, without you

La, la, la etc.

My mind is buggin out
when I think your're it
see me run
lucky lil´ split
And my toes watch them curl
so don't call me babe cause I ain't your little girl

But my heart, it won't obey
it won't do, without you
I doubt my heart, it won't obey
it just wont do, without you





La, la, la etc.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to MC Mario's song "It Just Won't Do" depicts a story about a girl who is struggling to let go of her feelings for a guy, even when her friends keep telling her that he is not good for her. She enumerates that her eyes cannot see other guys that are cuter, her ears cannot hear her friends' advice to walk away, her knees do not go weak when he does not call her, her head does not spin with his sweet nothings, and her toes do not curl when he calls her babe. Despite all these things, her heart is still longing for him and refuses to obey her mind's advice to move on.


The song portrays a common dilemma that many of us experience in relationships - we know the person we are with may not be good for us, but our heart refuses to let go. It highlights the struggle between what the mind knows is right and what the heart wants. The repetition of the lyrics "it just won't do, without you" emphasizes the intensity of the emotions the girl is feeling and how important the guy is to her.


Overall, the song presents a relatable message to its listeners about the power of love and how difficult it can be to move on from someone, even when it is the right thing to do.
