When the exits of your life
Are blocked with no go signs
And the trouble at your door
Seems for you perfectly designed for you
In the interests of love
Don't let it take a hold
Of the humour in your heart
Or the sweetness in your soul

Learn to turn the other cheek
Laugh next time you feel weak
If the playing field seems too steep
Reveal your cards
Old habits die hard
Old habits die hard

Don't let them trick you in
To blaming someone else
For the things that you have lost
Or left upon the shelf
You got brothers in the boats
Your sisters asking help
We are better than they think
Our hearts are not for sale

Learn to turn the other cheek
Laugh next time you feel weak
If the playing field seems too steep
Reveal your cards
Old habits die hard
Old habits die hard
Old habits die hard
Old habits die hard
Old habits die hard
Old habits die hard
Old habits die hard
