Lyrics[]
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 them get to you
I've 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
The 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're needing five
In life, there's no time out
It's a power play
A power, power play
(It's just a power play)
They'll lift you out of the cradle
Help you into the grave
But don't be fooled
The only rule is
Don't be their slave
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're needing five
In life, there's no time out
It's a power play
A power, power play
(It's 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
We're in the final quarter
And it's running out
You're needing five
In life, there's no time out
It's a power play
A power, power play
(It's just a power play)
