No Excuse

You know I was'nt born just yesterday
I heard it all before and I already know
what you're gonna say.
You think that you can pull the wool
right over my eyes
but baby I am wise
to the truth you try so hard to hide.

No Excuse.
Don't give me no excuses.
No excuse.

You heard all the rules
and you wanted to play.
You've got one of three choices
that you can make.
You can follow or lead
or get outta the way.

Get outta the way.
Get outta my way.
I won't take no more
excuses from you.

So, you believe you're clever
think you've pulled it off again
You say you've got it all together
but we both know the shape
you're really in.

You think that you have won me over
with those sexy eyes
Oh you can take my advice
It's been a while since
you've taken me to paradise.

No excuse.
Don't give me no excuses.
No excuse.

You heard all the rules
and you wanted to play.
You've got one of three choices
that you can make.
You can follow or lead
or get outta the way.

Get outta the way.
Get outta my way.
I won't take no more
excuses from you.
No excuse

Don't even try to offer me
your stripped down
white washed
misconstruence

Cause anything but the truth
is unacceptable.
Anything but the truth
is unacceptable.

It's a misconception
that true love can conquer all
Our every confrontation
is like talking to a brick wall
It takes two to tango
That can't be denied.
But we don't even
dance together
and you certainly don't
try to keep me satisfied.

No Excuse.
Don't give me no excuses
No excuse.
You heard all the rules
and you wanted to play.
You've got one of three choices
that you can make.
You can follow or lead
or get out of the way!
