The guy she married was an innocent man
A fake guitarist in an 80’s band
He never knew when it got way out of hand
With her love

She was a woman of a different kind
She had him lookin’ where there’s nothin’ to find
He always wondered why he was willin’ to die
For her love

Now, that was his life
– “Excuse me, sir, do you want me
to check on your wife?”
– “Naah, she’s doin’ fine,
I’m sure she’s doin’ alright”

He was the silent type, he tried not to speak
She made him promises she tried not to keep
She only wanted him to sugar her tea
With his love

Hey, that was his life
– “Excuse me, sir, do you want me
to check on your wife?”
– “No, she’s doin’ fine,
I’m sure she’s doin’ alright”
