Play By The Rules

I’m sick and tired of fighting
Just for what I know is mine
Tell me I can’t have it
Destruction is a sign of times
Play by the rules
Let’s replay the action
In slow motion from the start
Watch from all the angles
Now this is where you stole my heart
Take me for a sucker
While I’m trippin’ on my tongue
Come on, give me credit
at least I know who’s lost, who’s won
Play by the rules
BREAK
I’m sick and tired of wages
That won’t even pay my rent
I think I’ll bill my agent
For the cash that I can’t spend
Play by the rules

Electric Blue

You always knew how to pull my strings
I always knew you would break my heart
And when I tried to find the better things
You found a better way to break my heart
Why don’t you leave me alone?
Why can’t you let me move on?
You just
Keep me hanging on!
I knew the day that you came along
You’d be a mound full of trouble
And so I thought that I would play the pawn
And now I’m paying double
Why can’t you leave me alone, yeah?
Why don’t you let me go on?
You just keep me hanging on, uh huh
Electric Blue
You tripped a wire in my heart
Electric Blue
I’m getting burned by the spark
Electric Blue
I should have known from the start
Electric Blue
I let you take me by surprise
Giving me the finer things
But now your touch is as cold as ice
And every kiss is another sting
Electric Blue
You tripped a wire in my heart
Electric Blue
I’m getting burned by the spark
Electric Blue
I should have known from the start
Electric Blue
BREAK
I couldn’t leave you if I tried
You said you loved me
Now/But I know you lied
Electric Blue
You tripped a wire in my heart
Electric Blue
I’m getting burned by the spark
Electric Blue
I should have known from the start
Repeat & ad lib.
