The Rules - Delorentos

It’s just a figure of speech

I can’t claim to know your geography

But oh, I have all the clues.

Shout down all the Jim Crow laws

You can’t have an effect if you’ve never had a cause

It’s true, and I don’t know the rules.

And all the time we’ve been talking.

I’ve been thinking.

Oh what a waste of my time, I’ve been going out of my mind

What was I thinking coming here tonight

Said a little too much, had a little too much.

Knock back your Montgomery Jack

And don’t say to me that you wouldn’t understand

It’s true, I’m «barely out of school».

Attack and take it all back

And make it all up, ignoring all the facts

It’s true, and I don’t know the rules.

And all the time we’ve been talking

I’ve been thinking.

Oh what a waste of my time, I’ve been going out of my mind

What was I thinking coming here tonight

Said a little too much, had a little too much.

Isn’t it a shame?

Isn’t it a shame?

Isn’t it a shame?

Isn’t it a shame?

Oh what a waste of my time, I’ve been going out of my mind

What was I thinking coming here tonight

Said a little too much, had a little too much.
