Elton John - Act Of War Lyrics
Duet with millie jacksonMusic by elton johnLyrics by bernie taupinReleased as a uk single in june, 1985This aint no battle honey, this aint no fightHow come you take it so hard when I stay out all nightIf I take a drink, is that against the lawAnd if I have a good time, do you call that an act of warWell you better believe it boy, this house is your homeI didnt build it up for you to live here on my ownAnd if you think its easy to forget about meYoud better think twice, youd better believe its an act of warWere living on the front line you and meFighting on this battleground of miseryOh go ahead bring on your artilleryAnd well make this an act of warGive it all youve got `cause Im all dug inKeep the punches coming I can take them on the chinWinner takes all, let the best man winAnd we call it an act of warWell Im a man of convenience I work a long hard dayAfter twelve long hours aint I got the right to playIf living together is getting in the wayThen I call that an act of warWell if thats your game then honey two can playIm going on the town tonight and have some fun my wayAint no way baby this girls gonna stayI call it, I call it an act of warAnd it looks like time aint been on our sideIf we could turn the clock backWe might survive this act of war
