Fifty Ways to Leave Your Lover lyrics

"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 leave your lover:

Just slip out the back, Jack!

Make a new plan, Stan!

You don't need to be coy, Roy,

Just get yourself free.

Hop on the bus, Gus!

You don't need to discuss much.

Just drop off the key, Lee,

And get yourself free!

Ooo slip out the back, Jack!

Make a new plan, Stan!

You 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!

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

And I believe that 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.

Fifty ways to leave your lover:

Just slip out the back, Jack!

Make a new plan, Stan!

You don't need to be coy, Roy,

Just get yourself free.

Oh, you hop on the bus, Gus!

You don't need to discuss much.

Just drop off the key, Lee,

And get yourself free!

Slip out the back, Jack!

Make a new plan, Stan!

You 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!
