Here’s to the voice in your head
that made you get drunk
and wander recklessly into my bed
You tell me, at home theres a man
Who’s married to you
Oh my dear, frankly I don’t give a damn
And then you say:
“Baby…
You know that silly old song goes on and on
It tears me apart
I know I’m singing it wrong
But that’s the way it goes in my heart”
Here’s to the leather you wear
The toys and the chains
The dirty needs your husband doesn’t share
You tell me how lonely you’ve been
How lonely and sad
Oh now, give in to lust, give in to sin
And then you say:
“Baby…
You know that silly old song goes on and on
It tears me apart
I know I’m singing it wrong
But that’s the way it goes in my heart”
And he is in for a really unpleasant surprise
‘cause I’ve been between your thighs
And something remained
Your blue eyes
Can’t cover the shame
And his simple, sweet life
Will change
“You know that silly old song goes on and on
It tears me apart
I know I’m singing it wrong
But that’s the way it goes in my heart”
And even though I’ll make sure we’ll never meet again
You made my broken heart beat again
So take good care of my baby
