Congratulations

Oh, seems like you've done it again

And I ain't had such misery

Since I don't know when

Oh, and I don't know when, oh, and I don't know when



I notice so many people

Slipping away

And many more waiting in the lines

In the courtrooms today

Oh, in the courtrooms today



Love is not a game

Love is not a toy

Love's no romance

Love will do you in

And love will wash you out

And needless to say

You won't stand a chance, you won't stand a chance

I'm hungry for learning

Won't you answer me please

Can a man and a woman

Live together in peace,

Oh, live together in peace?
