(Whitfield/Strong) Each day you've got someone new A new heart to break And leave feeling blue For you're a handsome guy Girls just can't pass you by But I can, my friend I'm the exception to the rule I 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 plea But you won't capture me I'm the exception to the rule You 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 in I know that nine girls out of every ten Wants you to be their man But there I am again That one in ten So it's useless For you to try and change me Because I won't give in, my friend You could fool all the girls With your lies About you being so sweet and kind But oh no, not me I'm the exception to the rule Give it up I'm the one you can't fool I'm the one I'm the exception to the rule Give it up I'm the one you can't fool I'm the one The exception to the rule Give it up I'm the one you can't fool I'm the one I'm the one you can't fool
