Questioning heteronormative jealousies on our way to blowing up on r/relationships

lyrics

Was I talking in my sleep?
You've been giving me the heat, again
Accusing me of being cruel
I wouldn't break the ru-u-ules
when I was counting sheep
were you searching with suspicious hands
trying to find to the evidence
I found greener grass to hop a fe-e-ence

oh, you know I know the rules
I ain’t nobody’s fool
except a fool for you
that’s why I know the ru-u-ules

Did you think I said a word?
four letters better left unhe-a-ard
crying foul behind your back
It’s not how I would rea-a-act
Darling you got me stressin' out
looking over both of my shoulders now
If this is our state of trust
Well I think our love is busted

oh, you know I know the rules
I ain’t nobody’s fool
except a fool for you
that’s why I know the ru-u-ules

Be a good boy
don’t say nothing wrong
follow the rules, yeah
and keep it to yourself
Be a good boy
don’t say nothing wrong
follow the rules, yeah
and keep it to yourself

Oh I’m sweatin’ in my seat
You’re lighting fire under my feet again
And I’m tryin to keep it cool
You know I know the ru-u-ules
