A double subject of the family and that eternal question: to follow or not follow the rules.

lyrics

The Score ©Laforge/Randall

My mother said, read the rules, you’re going to have to learn them
Don’t play with matches, little fool, the fire’s going to burn you
Knives are sharp and kids are cruel, lack of money will make you blue
Do the best you can with what you’ve got, thanks Mom but that’s not a lot

I apologize; I’m going to have to turn you down
I know the score, but I’m hoping for a little more

My father knew that life was hard; so better put your gloves on
The bigger the battle the stronger the heart - but I’m so tired of warring
Small matters escaped him - life escaped him in the end
I’m trying Dad, but look at the state I’m lying in

I apologize; I’m going to have to turn you down
I know the score, but I’m hoping for a little more

Brother, sister, mother, father, friend – travellers all together
I try to remember the important thing - to love each other
But from this watchtower, the sky is looking dark
And in my selfish reflection, I have to say I’m rather lost

I apologize; I’m going to have to turn you down
I know the score, but I’m hoping for a little more
