Rope Around A Fool

Music by Elton JohnLyrics by Bernie TaupinReleased as a UK B-side in 1988I don't make the rules around hereA tear starts at the edgeIt takes two hands to rip itIt takes a lot more than either one of us has saidBut I come from indecisionA place you ain't never beenLiving in the state of confusionOn a map that runs like the veins under your skinWe got Miss Communication kicking out the stoolWe got mass determination making up the rulesBut saving us is something that we can't doAnd it's easier sometimes to throw a rope around a foolAnd love is just another meansby which we hang ourselvesIt takes two to executeOne to leave with innocence and one to leave with guiltBut I just see no realityJust shades drawn on remorseWe've whipped this beast beyond the limitStaggered out of breath along this courseIt's easier to lose a rope around a foolEasier sometimes to throw a rope around a foolA ring of your indifference thrown anywhere you chooseEasier sometimes to throw a rope around a foolRope around a fool
