Lyrics Rules & Lies - Bad Temper Joe

Rules and lies are keeping me down and cryin'
Rules and lies are keeping me down and cryin'
You go for a party
But I stay at home
You need some spare time
You don't want me around
Rules and lies are keeping me down and cryin'
Rules and lies are keeping me down and cryin'
Breakfast's on the table
But the coffee's getting cold
Almost noon
You're still not at home
Rules and lies are keeping me down and cryin'
Rules and lies are keeping me down and cryin'
The news is out now
All over town
You've been seen A-runnin' around
Rules and lies are keeping me down and cryin'
Rules and lies are keeping me down and cryin'
You say, "Jump!" Oh, babe, how high
You say, "Don't fail!" Oh, babe, I'll try
Rules and lies are keeping me down and cryin'
Rules and lies are keeping me down and cryin'
Rules and lies are keeping me down and cryin'
Rules and lies are keeping me down and cryin'
