Florence: What`s going on around me Is barely making sense, I need some explanations fast!
I see my present partner In the imperfect tense, And I don`t see how we can last.
I feel I need a change of cast Maybe I`m on nobody`s side, And when he gives me reasons To justify each move, They`re getting harder to believe.
I know this can`t continue, I`ve still a lot to prove, There must be more I could achieve. But I don`t have the nerve to leave!
Florence & Chorus: Everybody`s playing the game, But nobody`s rules are the same, Nobody`s on nobody`s side.
Better learn to go it alone, Recognize you`re out on your own, Nobody`s on nobody`s side.
Florence: The one I should not think of Keeps rolling through my mind, And I don`t want to let that go!
No lover`s ever faithful, No contract truly signed, There`s nothing certain left to know. And how the cracks begin to show!
Florence & Chorus: Never make a promise or plan, Take a little love where you can, Nobody`s on nobody`s side.
Never stay too long in your bed, Never lose your heart, use your head! Nobody`s on nobody`s side.
Florence: Side! Never take a stranger`s advice, Never let a friend fool you twice, Chorus: Nobody`s on nobody`s side. Nobody`s on nobody`s side.
Florence & Chorus: Never be the first to believe, Never be the last to deceive, Nobody`s on nobody`s side.
Florence: Chorus: Never leave a moment too soon, Never leave a moment too soon, Never waste a hot afternoon, Never waste a hot afternoon, Nobody`s on nobody`s side, Never stay too long! Never stay a minute too long.
Florence & Chorus: Don`t forget the best will go wrong, Nobody`s on nobody`s side!
