Lyrics

 * As you go from day to day
 * Looking for a better way
 * And you think you've got in all under control
 * And so you bend the rules a bit
 * As you try to make things fit
 * But you know you should be doing as you're told


 * Although sometimes you'll find it so hard
 * And the wrong way may seem easier
 * It doesn't matter who you are
 * Obey the rules and you'll go far


 * We all live by rules and regulations
 * Rules and regulations now
 * Isn't it a bore, isn't it a chore
 * Sometimes it's so hard remembering all those
 * Strict rules...codes...laws...all those stipulations
 * Rules and regulations now
 * But without those rules and regulations
 * Where would we be now


 * So you see you have to try and do the right thing every time
 * If you do, then you will come to the conclusion
 * That there is right and there is wrong
 * And the rules help you along
 * And they're really only there for your protection


 * Although sometimes you'll find it so hard
 * And the wrong way may seem easier
 * It doesn't matter who you are
 * Obey the rules and you'll go far


 * We all live by rules and regulations
 * Rules and regulations now
 * Isn't it a bore, isn't it a chore
 * Sometimes it's so hard remembering all those
 * Strict rules...codes...laws...all those stipulations
 * Rules and regulations now
 * But without those rules and regulations
 * Where would we be now


 * We all live by rules and regulations
 * Rules and regulations now
 * Isn't it a bore, isn't it a chore
 * Sometimes it's so hard remembering all those
 * Strict rules...codes...laws...all those stipulations
 * Rules and regulations now
 * But without those rules and regulations
 * Where would we be now
