you don't make things easy - finished

I had made a few more notes:

beat the odds - possible rhyme: puzzled nods
play by the rule

Eventually I came up with this verse:

you're never playing by the rule
you love to make me look the fool
you can be sweet, you can be cruel, and I
just can't make out why

So now here is the complete text:

life's a game with win and loss
the world's a place where coins are tossed
sometimes you're sweet, sometimes you're cross with me
for reasons I don't see

you're never playing by the rule
you love to make me look the fool
you can be sweet, you can be cruel, and I
just can't make out why

Hey Babe, you don't make things easy
you don't try hard to please me
you're jealous, angry, and you're wild
now you're mature, then you're a child
I love you all the same
but you don't make things easy

I'm not sure which game you play
but I love you anyway
I'll buy you flowers now and then, though you
don't honour what I do

Hey Babe, you don't make things easy
you don't try hard to please me
you're jealous, angry, and you're wild
now you're mature, then you're a child
I love you all the same
but you don't make things easy

Hey Babe, ...
