Rope Around a Fool — текст песни (Elton John)

Music by elton john

Lyrics by bernie taupin

Released as a uk b-side in 1988



I dont 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 aint 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 cant do

And its 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

Weve whipped this beast beyond the limit

Staggered out of breath along this course





Its 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

Rope around a fool
