SHEENA EASTON
"Double Standard"
(Steve Kipner / Ben Petterson)

It seems the code you live by just isn't mine, just isn't mine

Double, double standards, you got a different point of view
You got double, double standards
The rules that you applied to me, you don't apply to you
Double, double standards, we got different states of mind

You got double, double standards
If you can do it, I can do it, there's no dividing line
Don't worry about me, I'll be alright

You got double, double standards
The rules that you applied to me, you don't apply to you
Double, double standards, we got different states of mind

Double, double standards, you got a different point of view
You got double, double standards
The rules that you applied to me, you don't apply to you
Double, double standards, we got different states of mind
