Should I Betray? – Richard ThompsonBy Should I betray you to your spouse?The wife who waits back at the houseShe doesn’t know that you’re a louseThat’s not the man she wedShe doesn’t know the deals you makeThe throats you cut, the vows you breakTo buy up some old lady’s stakeQuick before she’s deadShe doesn’t see your oily smarmYou pour on in the place of charmWhen you’ve got some shopgirl by the armSteering her into bedThat virgin forest you chopped downTo build another ugly townI’ll tell your wife you bribed them roundTo back your plan insteadBut perhaps she doesn’t want to seeThe heel that you’ve turned out to beThat’s why she’ll take a gin or threeTo drive doubts from her headWhile she’s working hard enoughWith housework, kids and all that stuffYou’re out there with some bit of fluffCruising on the medShe thought the leopard’s spots were paintShe thought she’d turn you to a saintKept hoping, though the hope grew faintThat you were better bredShould I betray you to your spouse?The wife who waits back at the houseShe doesn’t know that you’re a louseThat’s not the man she wed www.pillowlyrics.com419786497975 88k 20
