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 |
