50 Ways to Leave Your Lover
"The problem is all inside your head"
He 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"
He said, "It's really not my habit to intrude
And furthermore, I hope my meaning
Won't be lost or misconstrued
But I repeat myself
At the risk of being crude
There must be fifty ways To leave your lover
Fifty ways to leave your lover"
Just slip out the back, Jack
Make a new plan, Stan
Don't need to be coy, Roy
Just listen to me
Hop on the bus, Gus
Don't need to discuss much
Just drop off the key, Lee
And get yourself free
He 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?"
He said, "Why don't we both just sleep on it tonight
And I believe in the morning you'll begin to see the light"
And then he kissed me
And I realized he probably was right
There must be fifty ways to leave your lover
Fifty ways to leave your lover
Just slip out the back, Jack
Make a new plan, Stan
Don't need to be coy, Roy
Just listen to me
Hop on the bus, Gus
No need to discuss much
Just drop off the key, Lee
And get yourself free
Just slip out the back, Jack
Make a new plan, Stan
Don't need to be coy, Roy
Just listen to me
Hop on the bus, Gus
You don't need to discuss much
Just drop off the key, Lee
And get yourself free
Just slip out the back, Jack
Make a new plan, Stan

Just drop off the key, Lee
And get yourself free
