Lyrics

Monogamy

[Verse 1]

Sitting in a hotel lobby with a magazine

Hoping that she don't come rob me of curiosities

And I'm hoping that she'll just come, hoping that she'll just come clean

Oh, well, I'm sitting in a hotel lobby, reading magazines

[Chorus 1]

What part of you's not sure enough?

What part of me's not measuring up?

What makes yourself so sure about us?

Oh, oh, monogamy

[Verse 2]

Sitting in a hotel bar, observing from afar

Yeah, I'm watching this woman flirt while her boyfriend gets the car

And I'm watching all the boys try one by one die hard

Oh, well, I'm watching this woman work while her boyfriend steals her car

[Chorus 2]

What part of him's so dangerous?

What part of her says, "He is enough"?

What makes a love work based on trust?

Oh, oh, monogamy

[Bridge]

I've been so wrong

Falling apart

Life could be long

If you just realize that love is an art

I'm watching all the boys fall, one by one come clean

While I'm standing in the hotel lobby with an empty magazine

[Chorus 3]

Some things were meant to be

It's high time I finally see

There's one me for you and there's one you for me

Oh, oh, monogamy
