letra de don't break the rules - marc shaiman
hanratty:
it starts very early- once the baby toys are gone
a kid on the playground has to choose what side he’s on
it’s the bullies or the good guys, boy there ain’t no middle ground
though hoodlums try to blur the line and twist the truth around
then they call themselves a winner- but they’re self deceiving fools
cause the game ain’t worth winning if you’re breaking all the rules
the law is laid upon us when as kids we first ask “why?”
our parents set the rules when, “cause i said so” they reply
and though i thought i hated them and screamed with all my might
the next time that i had a choice, gee whiz i did what’s right
no, i never snuck a drink
i never stole a pack of “kools”
cause the game ain’t worth winning if you’re breaking all the rules
agents:
don’t break the rules!
hanratty:
or else we’re livin in the wild, wild west!
agents:

hanratty:

agents:

hanratty:
you thumb your nose right at the light for which i strive
ensemble (agents plus hanratty):
but those rules, those laws, keep us alive!
hanratty:
well it started back with moses when he led around the jews
and climbed way up that mountain to pick up gods daily news
he schlepped up old mt. sinai, cried and begged on their behalf
he almost dropped those tablets when he saw that golden calf
now we teach the ten commandments…
agents:
every sunday in our schools
hanratty:
cause the game ain’t worth winning if you’re breaking all the rules
agents:
and baby i guess…
hanratty:
i guess the const-tution boys, to some is too complex
agents:
we’re thinking they think…
hanratty:
they think our founding fathers fought so they could forge some checks
agents:
and now it’s looking they see themselves…
hanratty:
they see themselves as robin hood; stealing from the rich
agents:
but don’t you know they’re not paying back…
hanratty:
not paying back the things they take. well payback is a b-tch
cause the world ain’t sherwood forest
ensemble:
you can’t give away those jewels
hanratty:
and the game ain’t worth winning if you’re breaking all the rules
agents:
don’t break the rules!
hanratty:
or else we’re livin in the wild, wild west!
agents:
don’t break the rules!
hanratty:
gods keeping score and you don’t want to fail that test!
agents:
don’t break the rules!
hanratty:
you thumb your nose right at the light for which i strive!
ensemble:
but those rules, those laws, keep us alive!
agents:
us alive!!!!!
hanratty:
when you steal somebody’s money
screw his daughter or his wife
you don’t think of repercussions
as you tap dance through your life
though you smile like you’re a hero
you’re an outlaw through and through
but the odds are in my favor man…
ensemble:
and one day i’ll catch you!
hanratty:
so go sneak into a movie
run a red light, sell some pot
it’s all the same to me
you’re either guilty or you’re not
if we all did what we wanted
every time we felt the urge
ensemble:
the world would be in total chaos!!!!
hanratty:
it’s already on the verge
yes its laws that keep us human…
ensemble:
cause without them we’re just mules
and the game ain’t worth winning..
hanratty(spoken):
yes!
ensemble:
the game ain’t worth winning…
hanratty(spoken):
no!
ensemble:
the game ain’t worth winning…
hanratty:
if you’re breaking all the rules
agents:
don’t break the rules!
hanratty:
or else we’re living in the wild, wild west
agents:
don’t break the rules!
hanratty:
gods keeping score, you don’t want to fail that test!
agents:
don’t break the rules!
hanratty:
you thumb your nose right at the light for which
i strive!
ensemble:
but those rules, those laws…
hanratty(spoken):

ensemble:
those rules, those laws…
hanratty(spoken):
again boys!
ensemble:
those rules, those laws, keep us alive!
