One for the Neck
Pig Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Easy, ready, willing, overtime
Where does it stop
Where do you dare me
To draw the line
You've got the body
Now you want my soul
Don't even think about it
Say no go

Yeah, I 'll do anything
That you want me to do
And I'll do almost anything
That you want me too, ooh

Yeah but I can't go for that no (no can do)
I can't go for that no (no can do)
I can't go for that no (no can do)

I can't go for that
Can't go for that
Can't go for that
Can't go for that

I can go for being twice as nice
I can go for just repeating
The same old lines
Use the body
Now you want my soul
Ooh, forget about it
Now say no go

Yeah I, I'll do anything
That you want me to do
Yeah I'll do almost anything
That you want me to do

Yeah but I can't go for that no (no can do)

Overall Meaning

The song "I Can't Go for That (No Can Do)" by Pig&Dan and Rachel Lyn is about a person who is being pursued by another person who wants their body and soul. The person being pursued is willing to do almost anything to make the other person happy, but draws the line when it comes to losing their own identity and integrity. The lyrics describe the struggle between desire and self-respect, and the need to set boundaries in relationships.


The repeated refrain "I can't go for that" represents the person's refusal to give up their own identity and desires in order to please someone else. The phrase "no can do" emphasizes this refusal, as if the person is setting a firm boundary that cannot be crossed. The verses describe the other person's attempts to persuade and seduce the person, but the chorus remains steadfast in its rejection of their advances.


Overall, the song is a commentary on the importance of maintaining personal boundaries and standing up for oneself in relationships. It encourages listeners to value their own autonomy and not to compromise their own identity for someone else's sake.
