Law

Please have the grace to spare my feelings
Now you know how to leave me reeling
You don't have to let it out
Or spread the word about
Because??? of your teasing

Now Pru, the law's against me and my conscience is, too
But there ought to be a law against you
In my defence you tie me up
What you gonna do when you grow up

Pru, you know I'd never call your bluff
But you don't know when enough is enough
If only you knew how I'd love to take it further
That I've often felt like killing you
But that doesn't make me guilty of murder, Pru

The law's against me and my conscience is, too
But there ought to b e a law against you
In my defence you tie me up
What you gonna be when you grow up

Pru, Prudence please, I beg of you
The law's against me, what can I do
Except maybe admire you

There ought to be a law against you
There ought to be a law against you
