lyrics  (or you can return to the main lord eric page)

So You're the Exception to the Rule

The house burned down tonight but there was nobody home
You were a little too late, so what
So what if everything that you've been up to
You can't stand up to

You're so good being right but I like you better when you're wrong
You've been a little too quick to fight
You've been a little too strong

And is it worse finding a reason to bolt than a reason to believe
You're throwing your arms 'round the world when your coat
Has those straightjacket sleeves
You might relieve and find you breathe as well as bleed

Nothing worse than being a fool
So you're bad, so you're the exception to the rule
Nothing wrong with wanting to be cool
But if you want to be somebody, just be somebody

You want to get what you want
