Lyrics

BETTER WATCH YOUR MAN

CHORUS

Girl, BETTER WATCH YOUR MAN

4 BARS

VERSE

Out at the club on Friday night
There was your man, it wasn't right, was holding tight
To someone who wasn't you
She was hotter than you (too)

Poor thing at home and sick in bed
Don't you wish not that you were dead, you've been misled
By the man you thought you knew
I'm your friend so I'll tell you

CHORUS

Girl, BETTER WATCH YOUR MAN
Your man is stepping out
He's sleeping all around
Girl, BETTER WATCH YOUR MAN
He doesn't look the type
But he's got a secret life

VERSE

Don't even question him or call
He'll only lie about it all, blame alcohol
For the one mistake he made
He'll leave out that he got (laid)

Why don't we follow him instead
See where he goes, not what he says, girl, think ahead
Men don't ever tell the truth
What we need my friend is (proof)

There he is hangin' with his boys
Probably thinking up some ploy, you can't avoid
That this dog's up to no good
Seeing someone else and (you)

He's speed dialing his phone
Not calling you, you should have known you'd be alone
If you made his leash too long
Not too late to right this wrong


CHORUS

Girl, BETTER WATCH YOUR MAN
He's got somebody else
Or maybe ten or twelve
Girl, BETTER WATCH YOUR MAN
He said he'd be at home
That doesn't mean alone

VOCAL BREAK


CHORUS

Girl, BETTER WATCH YOUR MAN
Just check his cell phone bill
If you won't, I will
Girl, BETTER WATCH YOUR MAN
He's saying "faithfully"
But he's been seeing...

BRIDGE

All his friends will back him up
You'll cry, then you'll both make up
Girl-haven't you had enough
Think it's time you called it quits
'Cause I'm the one he's playin' with
Girl-yeah, I'm your nemesis

(Repeat Chorus and ad lib)
