"The New Rules" lyrics

"The New Rules"

You've got a lot of nerve to come running
Back to the one that you just walked on
You didn't even wait until my nerves calmed
And I hear you come

Oh, I've been a fool, a first class fool
But that's all in the past, here's the new rule

If you wanna play - the game of love with me
You gotta put up anything for love
And pay the interest on it
And then get two for one, that's the new rule

If you wanna play - the game of love with me
You gotta put up anything for love
And pay the interest on it
And then get two for one, that's the new rule

Oh, I can't take a chance, not with my heart again
If there's got to be a loser, it won't be me
I can't chance it, my heart couldn't take it
Can't let you break it

If you wanna play the game of love with me
You gotta put up anything for love
And pay the interest on it
And then get two for one, that's the new rule

Oh, I can't take a chance, not with my heart again
If there's got to be a loser, you know it won't be me
I can't chance it, my heart couldn't take it
Can't let you break it

If you wanna play the game of love with me
You gotta put up anything for love
And then pay the interest on it
And then get two for one, that's the new rule
...
