"Rope Around A Fool" lyrics
"Rope Around A Fool"
I don't make the rules around here
A tear starts at the edge
It takes two hands to rip it
It takes a lot more than either one of us has said
But I come from indecision
A place you ain't never been
Living in the state of confusion
On a map that runs like the veins under your skin
We got Miss Communication kicking out the stool
We got mass determination making up the rules
But saving us is something that we can't do
And it's easier sometimes to throw a rope around a fool
And love is just another means
By which we hang ourselves
It takes two to execute
One to leave with innocence and one to leave with guilt
But I just see no reality
Just shades drawn on remorse
We've whipped this beast beyond the limit
Staggered out of breath along this course
It's easier to lose a rope around a fool
Easier sometimes to throw a rope around a fool
A ring of your indifference thrown anywhere you choose
Easier sometimes to throw a rope around a fool

Standin' here, on the edge of time
Waitin' for you baby, I might change your mind
But maybe I'm a fool, still...
Paul Simon - "Me And Julio Down By The Schoolyard" The mama pajama rolled out of bed
And she ran to the police station
When the papa found out he, began to shout
And he started the investigation
It's against the law
It was against the law
What mama...

Ringo Starr - "Occapella" Groovy!
Ah, there's music in the streets and there's music in the air.
A little ol' soul beat, and there's dancin' ev'rywhere.
I would tell the whole world, tell 'em if i could,
To add a little song...
Paul Carrack - "Good And Ready" I'm good and ready
Ready as I'll ever be
You know I made it through
Like I always do
Now I'm back as you can see
They call me a soul survivor
Now they're gonna set me free
You know I took my time...
