What's going on around me   Is barely making sense   I need some explainations 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 acheive   But I don't have the nerve to leave      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      The one I should not think of   Keeps rolling through my mind   And I don't want to let that go   No lovers ever faithfull   No contract truly signed   There's nothing certain left to know   And how the cracks begin to show      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      Never take a stranger's advice   Never let a friend fool you twice   Nobody's on nobody's side   Never be the first to believe   Never be the last to deceive   Nobody's on nobody's side   And 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      Better learn to go it alone   Recognize you're out on your own   Nobody's on nobody's side
