Don't be alarmed
It's not the end of the world
If we're breaking the rules it's fine
I disregard this kind of problem all the time

It's not as if it's gonna kill anyone
If there's no victim then there's no crime
Just draw another if you think we've crossed the line

Rules don't stop me
Forget about it
Rules don't stop me
We'll get around it
Rules don't stop me
Forget about it
Don't stop me, don't stop me

Although it may seem unconventional sometimes
Indiscretion is worth a try
If you just play along I promise we'll be fine

So leave your hang-ups back at the door
When you and I are down on the floor
Will you know what to do about it
You know what to do about it

Rules don't stop me
Forget about it
Rules don't stop me
We'll get around it
Rules don't stop me
Forget about it
Don't stop me, don't stop me

It's not as bad as they say
If this is such a mistake
Why does it seem to make you so damn happy?
This is no time to behave
Let's both get carried away
If there's a price to be paid
It won't stop me

Rules don't stop me
Forget about it
Rules don't stop me
We'll get around it
Rules don't stop me
Forget about it
Don't stop me, don't stop me
They don't stop me, they don't stop me

. . .


There isn't anything to talk about
You know I don't mean harm
I really don't mean anything at all
If we both understand what's going on
It's pretty clear we'll get along
It's pretty clear we'll get it

I dont bite but you can't believe it
(You can't believe it)
I dont bite but you can't believe it
(You can't believe it)

This isn't quite what I was counting on.
I wish I knew just what you want
I wish I knew anything at all
I tought the point here was to have some fun
I only wanna get it done
I only wanna get it

I dont bite but you can't believe it
(You can't believe it)
I dont bite but you can't believe it
(You can't believe it)

I don't mean anything
I don't mean anything

I dont bite but you can't believe it
(You can't believe it)
I dont bite but you can't believe it
(You can't believe it)

You're smart enough to make your mistakes
and act like you want 'em
Walk off the residual pain
and forget how you got it
Nice guys finish last anyway
and that's just the problem

If you're the nice guy, act like the nice guy
If you're the nice guy, act like the nice guy
If you want this, I want it more
If you want this, I want it more
If you want this, I want it more than you
I want it more than you

It's fine to say this isn't a game
when you've already lost it
It's pointless to go through it again
but perhaps you've forgotten
You've gotta know there's nothing to gain
so why even bother?

If you're the nice guy, act like the nice guy
If you're the nice guy, act like the nice guy
If you want this, I want it more
If you want this, I want it more
If you want this, I want it more than you
I want it more than you

This isn't a trick
so stop over-thinking everything
Just finish your drink
and stop over-thinking everything

If you're the nice guy, act like the nice guy
If you're the nice guy, act like the nice guy
If you're the nice guy, act like the nice guy
If you're the nice guy, act like the nice guy
If you want this, I want it more
If you want this, I want it more
If you want this, I want it more than you
I want it more than you
I want it more than you
I want it more than you

Well it's about that time
I probably ought to go
No matter what I do
It's way too late for self control

If you liked it
I was hoping I would know
If you liked it
I was hoping I would know

Whoa oh oh oh
Whoa oh oh oh
Whoa oh oh oh


Well anything can happen
Both our numbers on the napkins
Drenched in coke and gin
It's soaking in

On the floor, remember
thanks to all the jack and ginger
every pour has been
encouragin'

well it's about that time
who knows what's going on
I guess I should be used
To reading signals in the dark

When the lights hit
I was hoping I would know
When the lights hit
I was hoping I would know

That anything can happen
Both our numbers on the napkins
Drenched in coke and gin
It's soaking in

On the floor, remember
thanks to all the jack and ginger
every pour has been
encouragin'

Whoa oh oh oh
Whoa oh oh oh
Whoa oh oh oh
Whoa oh oh oh

Well anything can happen
Both our numbers on the napkins
Drenched in coke and gin
It's soaking in

On the floor, remember
thanks to all the jack and ginger
every pour has been
encouragin'

. . .


All this whispers and promises
All the hints and the solid prends

All we want is to be toghether
All we want is to be toghether

Every subtle and stolen glance
Can't be anymore obvious

All we want is to be toghether
All we want is to sleep toghether

Were only after one thing (6x)

All this ruptures and attica?
All this comforting decadence

All we want is to be toghether
All we want is to sleep toghether

Were only after one thing (6x)

I'd love to know
What else we done
Without the hope
Without the hope

Were only after one thing (10x)

Lately i've been measuring mistakes that i've been making
It's classical over-reach in stretch way beyond my station
Wherever i've been drinking lends a small amount of solace
That's emblessly (?) proporcional to how badly I want it

So long ambition
It's not a competition
I can't win anymore
I can't win anymore
An odd position
That I got the suspicion
I have been here before
I have been here before

Every single word from you is uncomfortably appealing
And reservations telling me to forget what i'm hearing
Part of me is screaming, you should just come out and ask her
As if there were a chance in hell that got me what I'm after

So long ambition
It's not a competition
I can't win anymore
I can't win anymore
An odd position
That I got the suspicion
I have been here before
I have been here before

For my imagination is a moving (?) cloud all working over time
This kind of aggrevation just seems perfectly designed to keep me up at night
It keeps me up at night
It keeps me up at night
Alright

So long ambition
It's not a competition
I can't win anymore
I can't win anymore
An odd position
That I got the suspicion
I have been here before
I have been here before
I have been here before
I have been here before

. . .


Is everybody in?
People don't fail me now
if no one wants to be up all night
whats the point in even going out

No I can't keep it here if you don't want to stay
but its hard to believe you could just walk away
and I know at some point that we'll all have to leave
but we'd never go home if you left it up to me

I refuse to take this apart
I refuse to break it up
I refuse to take this apart
I refuse to break it up

Call it consequence
some kinda of comic crowd
where every wrong will right itself
and once you're gone you'll want to come right back

so lets not all do something we're gonna regret
and just try to keep living the time we have left
no I don't really care about how you're (leading my way)?
cause we'd never go home if you left it up to

I refuse to take this apart
I refuse to break it up
I refuse to take this apart
I refuse to break it up

this is conversation not worth having
its only more time we're wasting
no matter what you say
no matter what you say

I refuse to take this apart
I refuse to break it up
I refuse to take this apart
I refuse to break it up

. . .


Take your time, I can wait
I remind, that it's late
I'll drive you home
Yeah, I'll drive you home

In a while, I'll be gone
?, all I want
To drive you home
Well, I drive you home

Again
Oooh [x4]

Promises, aren't enough
All the sins, all that once
But I drive you home
Would I drive you home

Again
Oooh [x4]

It's timing baby, forget about the summer, it's over
It's timing, can't we forget about the summer, it's over

It's timing baby, forget about the summer, it's over
It's timing, can't we forget about the summer, it's over

It's over [x7]
