WHY ARGUE (Y R GU) Dec. 9/84 Karl Rigelhof

Your eyes flash like diamonds
As they gleam with delight
Your gaze slashes like a laser
As your anger flares to start a fight

You exist to perplex me
You leave me in a perpetual mess
I can't resist the complexity
I believe my mind is in distress
I can't live with you
And I can't live without you
Yes

Your tongue lashes out like a whip
Why should I argue when I know I can't win
Your gun is cocked and ready to shoot from the hip
There's no way to stop it so let the fray begin

They say it the eyes are the mirror to the soul
Then you're about to erupt like a burning volcano
If that truly reflects the way that you feel
And every little thing becomes a big deal
Until you blow your top
When (i)s it gonna stop
Will it ever stop
No

Your mind is as sharp as the edge of a knife
Your arguments sink like fangs deep into my heart
Your weapons are poised and ready to strike
You always harp about the problems in your life
You say I've been the biggest one right from the start
What I say doesn't matter you still do as you like

Why argue
When you know that you're right
Why bother
When you know that I might
Not put up with it any more
What do I need this for
No reason, no rhyme
No season, no time
So why argue
Just say good bye
