Allan Dias/Duane Edmonds/John Lydon/John McGeoch/Bruce Smith)
You'll wonder should you risk it
A pocket full of mischief
An idiotic rain dance
Relying on a romance
Another frame beginning
Now's the time for singing a-ha!
Prayer has conceded
Successfully succeeded
Rules and regulations-rules and regulations
Howling at the moonshine
Barking up the wrong tree
A sacrificial slaughter
Took you from the altar
CHORUS
Rules and regulations-rules and regulations
Have no fear of laughter-wait for what comes after
Excusing no excuses
The hangman and his nooses
Busy executing
The b***** and blaspheming
Rules and regulations-rules and regulations
The Spanish Inquisition
No one above suspicion
Crying out for reason
Might as well be treason
CHORUS
You'll wonder should you risk it
A pocket full of mischief
An idiotic rain dance
Relying on a romance
Another frame beginning
Now's the time for singing a-ha!
Prayer has conceded
Successfully succeeded
Rules and regulations-rules and regulations
Howling at the moonshine
Barking up the wrong tree
A sacrificial slaughter
Took you from the altar
CHORUS
Rules and regulations-rules and regulations
Have no fear of laughter-wait for what comes after
Excusing no excuses
The hangman and his nooses
Busy executing
The b***** and blaspheming

No one above suspicion
Crying out for reason
Might as well be treason
