I got home last night
At ten past two
My folks turned blue
Their tempers flew

I've gotta be in bed
At quarter to 10
There go those rules again

[CHORUS]
Too many rules
Too many rules
Folks are just fools
Making too many rules
I pray the stars above
I haven't lost your love
'Cause there are too many rules
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsfreak.com/c/connie+francis/too+many+rules_20852660.html ]
When you call me on the telephone
It's not my own
They've made it known

So you must call me
Only now and then
There go those rules again

[Repeat CHORUS]

My kid brother's always on my trail
I can't escape that tattle tail
I hope you understand
What I'm going through
I don't know what to do

[Repeat CHORUS]

'Cause there are too many rules
