Enough Rope        (C) 1999 N.Thomas / K.Perkins         Cut to slack and the heartstrings blister         Warning words on another tongue twister         What's fair in love and war when you can score         A piggy back on a convenient sister         Give them enough rope - they're going to pull on the reins         Give them enough rope - they're going to swear they can fly         Give them enough rope - they're going to believe they're the same         Give them enough rope - they're going to hang themselves so high         Cut to chase and adolescent detective         A thousand questions and you're over-protective         What's "War & Peace" when she's your golden fleece         So screwed up that your emotions defective         Cut and run and our senses are jolted         In second sight our central visions defaulted         What's peace of mind when your reactions are timed         We close the gate after the horses have bolted
