rate meDuet with millie jackson<br>Music by elton john<br>Lyrics by bernie taupin<br>Released as a uk single in june, 1985<br><br>This ain't no battle honey, this ain't no fight<br>How come you take it so hard when I stay out all night<br>If I take a drink, is that against the law<br>And if I have a good time, do you call that an act of war<br><br>Well you better believe it boy, this house is your home<br>I didn't build it up for you to live here on my own<br>And if you think it's easy to forget about me<br>You'd better think twice, you'd better believe it's an act of war<br><br>We're living on the front line you and me<br>Fighting on this battleground of misery<br>Oh go ahead bring on your artillery<br>And we'll make this an act of war<br>Give it all you've got `cause I'm all dug in<br>Keep the punches coming I can take them on the chin<br>Winner takes all, let the best man win<br>And we call it an act of war<br><br>Well I'm a man of convenience I work a long hard day<br>After twelve long hours ain't I got the right to play<br>If living together is getting in the way<br>Then I call that an act of war<br><br>Well if that's your game then honey two can play<br>I'm going on the town tonight and have some fun my way<br>Ain't no way baby this girl's gonna stay<br>I call it, I call it an act of war<br><br>And it looks like time ain't been on our side<br>If we could turn the clock back<br>We might survive this act of war
