The New Rules |
You’ve got a lot of nerve to come running back to the one that you just walked |
on |
You didn’t even wait until my nerves calmed, and I hear you come |
Oh I’ve been a fool, a first class fool, |
But that’s all in the past, here’s the new rule |
If you wanna play — the game of love with me |
You gotta put up anything for love, and pay the interest on it |
and then get two for one, that’s the new rule |
If you wanna play — the game of love with me |
You gotta put up anything for love, and pay the intrest on it |
and then get two for one, that’s the new rule |
Oh, I can’t take a chance, not with my heart again |
If there’s got to be a loser, it won’t be me |
I can’t chance it, my heart couldn’t take it, can’t let you break it |
If you wanna play the game of love with me |
You gotta put up anything for love, and pay the interest on it |
and then get two for one, that’s the new rule |
chorus instrumental |
Oh, I can’t take a chance, not with my heart again |
If there’s got to be a loser, you know it won’t be me |
I can’t chance it, my heart couldn’t take it, can’t let you break it |
If you wanna play the game of love with me |
You gotta put up anything for love, and then pay the interest on it |
and then get two for one, that’s the new rule |
If you wanna play the game of love with me |
You gotta put up anything for love, and pay the interest on it |
and then get two for one, that’s the new rule |
repaet chorus |
