Who made up these rules
Am Em D
Who's a star and who's a tool

And who's a genius and who's a fool?
Am Em D
OH, who made up these rules?
Pre-Chorus
Am D
Who wrote all of these laws?
Am D
When to spit and when to applaud?

What's up the Devil and what's up God?

Cause I'm so tired of walking this wire
Am E
I'm either ice or I'm fire
Am D Am D
I'm so tired of walking this wire
Am E
I'm either ice or I'm fire
