"Rules And Regulations"

You'll wonder should you risk it
A pocket full of mischief
An idiotic rain
dance
Relying on a romance

Another frame beginning
Nows the time
for singing a-ha!
Prayer has conceded
Successfully succeeded

Rules
and regulations
Rules and regulations

Howling at the
moonshine
Barking up the wrong tree
A sacrificial slaughter
Took you
from the altar

Rules and regulations
Rules and
regulations

Have no fear of laughter
Wait for what comes
after

Excusing no excuses
The hangman and his nooses
Busy
executing
The bloody and blaspheming

Rules and regulations
Rules
and regulations

The Spanish inquisition
No one above
suspicion
Crying out for reason
Might as well be treason

Rules and
regulations
Rules and regulations

Have no fear of laughter
Wait for
what comes after

It's you they're looking out for
It's you they're
coming after
Innocent not guilty
Not to this committee
