Genius Users - The American and Florence/Nobody's Side lyrics

[FLORENCE] You want to lose your only friend? Well, keep it up, you're doing fine Why this humiliation? Why treat me like a fool? I've taken sh** for seven years And I won't take it anymore [THE AMERICAN] I'm only teasing Soviets With gentle bonhomie And you've a better reason to be anti-them than me [FLORENCE] There's a time and there's a place [THE AMERICAN] Is this the girl who always said She wants to know the truth? [FLORENCE] There's a time and there's a place... [COMPANY] 1956 -- Budapest is rising 1956 -- Budapest is fighting 1956 -- Budapest is falling 1956 -- Budapest is dying [THE AMERICAN] I'd have thought you'd support Any attack on these people [COMPANY] 1956 -- Budapest is rising [THE AMERICAN] On the people who ran Mindlessly over your childhood Don't let them fool you for Thirty years on they're the same [COMPANY] 1956 -- Budapest is fighting 1956 -- Budapest is falling [THE AMERICAN] They see chess as a war Playing with pawns just like Poland [COMPANY] 1956 -- Budapest is dying [THE AMERICAN] If you walk out on me They will have won their first battle Wouldn't your father Have begged you to stay in the game? [FLORENCE] He would, but he didn't know you He'd loathe your behaviour and so do I Why'd you have to do this to me? [Segue] [Verse - 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 [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 [Verse] 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 [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 [Chorus] Never take a stranger's advice Never let a friend fool you twice Nobody's on nobody's side Everybody's playing the game But nobody's rules are the same Nobody's on nobody's side Never leave a moment too soon Never waste a hot afternoon Nobody's on nobody's side Never stay a minute too long Don't forget the best will go wrong Nobody's on nobody's side Never be the first to believe Never be the last to deceive Nobody's on nobody's side Never make a promise or plan...
