50 Ways to Leave Your Lover

[Verse 1]

"The problem is all inside your head," she said to me

"The answer is easy if you take it logically

I'd like to help you in your struggle to be free

There must be fifty ways to leave your lover"

She said, "It's really not my habit to intrude

Furthermore, I hope my meaning won't be lost or misconstrued

But I'll repeat myself at the risk of being crude"

There must be fifty ways to leave your lover

Fifty ways to leavе your lover

[Chorus]

You just slip out the back, Jack

You make a nеw plan, Stan

There's no need to be coy, Roy

Ohh, you just get yourself free

You hop on the bus, Gus

There's no need to discuss much

You just drop off the key, Lee

Ohh, and you get yourself free

You slip out the back, Jack

You make a new plan, Stan

There's no need to be coy, Roy

Ohh, you just get yourself free

You hop on the bus, Gus

There's no need to discuss much

You just drop off the key, Lee

Ohh, and you get yourself free

[Verse 2]

She said, "It grieves me so to see you in such pain

I wish there was something I could do to make you smile again"

I said "I appreciate that, and would you please explain

About the fifty ways?"

She said, "Why don't we both just sleep on it tonight

I believe in the morning, you'll begin to see the light"

And then she kissed me, and I realized she probably was right

There must be fifty ways to leave your lover

There are fifty ways to leave your lover

[Chorus]

You just slip out the back, Jack

You make a new plan, Stan

There's no need to be coy, Roy

Ohh, you just get yourself free

You hop on the bus, Gus

There's no need to discuss much

You just drop off the key, Lee

Ohh, and you get yourself free, c'mon

You slip out the back, Jack

You make a new plan, Stan

There's no need to be coy, Roy

Ohh, you just listen to me

You hop on the bus, Gus

There's no need to discuss much

You just drop off the key, Lee

Ohh, and you get yourself free

And you get yourself free
