The Rules Of The Road

So these are the ropes

The tricks of the trade

The rules of the road

You're one of the dopes

For whom they were made

The rules of the road

You follow that kiss

And recklessly miss

A bend of the road

Then suddenly this

The end of the road

So love is a hoax

A glittering string

Of little white lies

But these are the jokes

And what if they bring

The tears to your eyes

Well love often shows a funny return

The brighter it glows

The longer you burn

And Lord only knows

Love has little concern

For the fools of the road

That's how it goes

You live and you learn

The rules of the road

Well love often shows a funny return

The brighter it glows

The longer you burn

And Lord only knows

Love has little concern

For the fools of the road

That's how it goes

You live and you learn

The rules of the road

The rules of the road
