You should never take more than you can lend 
Unless you wanna break you're gonna have to bend 
Keep your mind at ease, your heart close at hand 
The more you realize and the more you seem to understand 
Ooh, will there be love to be made 
Ooh, is any left anyway...ok 
I thought you was dyin' to love me, not put love on a shelf 
Before you hurt somebody else you've got to help yourself 
Ooh, are you ready today, you'd better be, 'cos there's hell to pay [Chorus:] 
All the lightning and thunder - out of hand 
Ready or not, now tell me what's your plan 
It gets to be all you can stand - rubberband 
You got to bounce back like a rubberband 
I thought what was gonna be easy, well it turned into hell 
Before I please somebody else 
I've got to please myself 
I said ooh, is this a game that you play, it might as well be anyway [Chorus] [Solo] 
All the lightning and thunder - out of hand 
Ready or not, now tell me what's your plan 
It gets to be all you can stand - rubberband 
Snap back back like a rubberband 
Ready or not - what's your plan 
Tell me what is your interest, show me where you stand 
You're mind at ease, your heart close at hand - rubberband 
Bounce back just like a rubberband man 
Rubberband, rubberband, rubberband, rubberband, rubberband 
You got to bounce back, snap back, jump around if you can 
Like a rubberband man
