Lyrics
Exception to Love
They say your love is like lightnin'
they say you never strike twice
your power is frightenin'
but your heart is like ice
you treat your women like playthings
you say that love is a game
every night its a new girl
but the thrill is the same
honey you're the king
but you'll lose your crown
when you mess with me
I'm gonna put you down
never gonna be nobody's fool
coz I'm the number one exception
to the golden rule
I'm an exception to love
exception to love
oh wo wo wo wo
exception to love
a -a-a-a exception to love
yeah exception to love
you can squeeze me,
tease me
but youi'll never unfreeze me
I'm-a an exception to love
[keyboard and guitar instrumental breaks]
honey you're the king
but you'll lose your crown
when you mess with me
I'm gonna put you down
never gonna be nobody's fool
coz I'm the number one exception
to the golden rule
I'm an exception to love
exception to love
oh wo wo wo wo
exception to love
a -a-a-a exception to love
yeah exception to love
you can squeeze me,
tease me
but youi'll never unfreeze me
I'm-a an exception to love
