Power Play Lyrics - Singles - Eddie And The Tide

They're out of order in war 

They're out of order in love 

They need to feed, they both agree 

The hawk and the dove 

But don't get mad, get even 

And don't let 'em get to you 

I never promised It was fair or true 

Before they're through They'll have me hunting you 

(Remember) 

It's not important 

(It's just a power play) 

Good and evil 

They're neck and neck 

Bases loaded And there's three on deck 

(It's a power play. A power, power play) 

We're in the final quarter 

And it's running out 

You'll need a father 

Like there's no time out 

(It's a power play. A power, power play) 

(Its just a power play) 

He'll lift you out of the cradle 

Help you into the grave 

But don't be fooled by all the rules 

And don't be their slave 

You take a chill pill baby 

Relax, float downstream 

Life is no rehearsal 

You know what I mean 

And freedom seems 

To be a far-off dream 

(Remember) 

It's not important 

(It's just a power play) 

Good and evil 

They're neck and neck 

Bases loaded And there's three on deck 

(It's a power play. A power, power play) 

We're in the final quarter 

And it's running out 

You'll need a father 

Like there's no time out 

(It's a power play. A power, power play) 

(Its just a power play) 

(A power, power play) 

(It's a power play. A power, power play) 

Good and evil 

They're neck and neck 

Bases loaded And there's three on deck 

(It's a power play. A power, power play) 

*Start fade out* 

We're in the final quarter 

And it's running out 

You'll need a father 

Like there's no time out 

(It's a power play. A power, power play)
