Each day you've got someone new
A new heart to break
And leave feeling blueFor you're a handsome guy
Girls just can't pass you by
But I can, my friend
I'm the exception to the ruleI know you think I'm just acting the part
Of the girl with the cold, cold heart
And it won't take long
For you to capture me
With your innocent but meaningful pleaBut you won't capture me
I'm the exception to the ruleYou tell me
Darling that's where you're wrong
That your love for me is oh so strong
That you will soon, very soon
Make me give inI know that nine girls out of every ten
Wants you to be their man
But there I am again
That one in tenSo it's useless
For you to try and change me
Because I won't give in, my friendYou could fool all the girls
With your lies
About you being so sweet and kindBut oh no, not me
I'm the exception to the rule
Give it upI'm the one you can't fool
I'm the one
I'm the exception to the rule
Give it upI'm the one you can't fool
I'm the one
The exception to the rule
Give it upI'm the one you can't fool
I'm the one
I'm the one you can't fool
