The Police vs. Fall Out Boy



Roxanne
The Police
Roxanne
You don’t have to put on the red light
Those days are over
You don’t have to sell your body to the night
Roxanne
You don’t have to wear that dress tonight
Walk the streets for money
You don’t care if it’s wrong or if it’s right
Roxanne
You don’t have to put on the red light
Roxanne
You don’t have to put on the red light

Roxanne
Put on the red light
Roxanne
Put on the red light
Roxanne
Put on the red light
Roxanne
Put on the red light
Roxanne
Put on the red light
Oh

I’ve loved ya since I knew ya
I wouldn’t talk down to ya
I have to tell you just how I feel
I won’t share you with another boy
I know my mind is made up
So put away your make-up
Told you once
I won’t tell you again
It’s a bad way
Roxanne
You don’t have to put on the red light
Roxanne
You don’t have to put on the red light

You don’t have to put on the red light
Roxanne
Roxanne
Put on the red light
Roxanne
Put on the red light
Roxanne
Put on the red light
Roxanne
Put on the red light
Roxanne
Put on the red light
Roxanne
Put on the red light
Roxanne
Put on the red light
Roxanne
Put on the red light
Roxanne
Put on the red light
You don’t have to put on the red light
Roxanne
Roxanne
Put on the red light
You don’t have to put on the red light
Roxanne
Roxanne
Put on the red light
Roxanne
Put on the right light

  4. Thanks for stopping by again, my dear Adullamite!!! Yeah, they didn't do a very good job at all with this cover, but I actually like some of their songs.

  5. I LOVE The Police! I've seen them and Sting (solo) many times in concert. We went to the reunion concert a few years ago and it was GREAT!

    Uh, needless to say, I'll take the Police over Fall Out Boy.
