Mickey & Sylvia — There Oughta Be a Law

There oughta be a law Against breaking peoples' hearts There oughta be a law Against tearing them apart There oughta be a law Against making people cry There ought be some kind of law And I will tell you why Take my heart and run away Leave me longing all the day I do the work You do the play And that's just not the way There oughta be a law Against cruelty to love Then you would have to change your ways Or you'd get thirty days Mickey? Yes, Sylvia? I want to introduce a new law Oh, really? Uh-huh Just what kind of new law? Well, I think There oughta be a law Against driving me insane There oughta be a law Against loving you in vain Then I'd be guilty And you'd be too They'd lock us up together Just us two There oughta be a law To say that I must be with you
