mind the mice

mind the mice where you stand

make sure you have your act all planned

think it twice and again

there will be hell if you can't explain

you've been out

you've been cruel

you've been a self indulgent fool

there's no doubt

you've done wrong

and now you just try to play along

so pick yourself up now and set things straight

though i know you're full of doubt

you just gotta let it out

and pick yourself up now before it's too late

if you wanna keep that ring

if she ever meant a thing

don't lie

mind the mice where you walk

coz you'll regret it all around the clock

it's the price that you pay

remorse like that will surely stay

she don't know where you've been

but the ice you're on is getting thin

she don't know what you've done

but she will get it in the longer run

so pick yourself up now and set things straight

though i know you're full of doubt

you just gotta let it out

and pick yourself up now before it's too late

if you wanna keep that ring

if she ever meant a thing

don't lie

no don't lie

oh you've still got it all boy

in the palm of your hand

if you get the chance you will lose it all

with your head stuck in the sand

stuck in the sand

oh you've still got it all boy

don't throw it all away

it's about time to get your head out now

if you want her to stay

so pick yourself up now and set things straight

though i know you're full of doubt

you just gotta let it out

and pick yourself up now before it's too late

if you wanna keep that ring

if she ever meant a thing

don't lie

no don't lie
