Excuse Me, Sir, Do You Want Me to Check on Your Wife? lyrics

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 willing to die for her love.

Now, that was his life.

'Excuse me, sir, do you want me

to check on your wife?'

'Nah, she's doin' fine.

I'm sure she's doing alright'.

Oh yeah.

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?'

'Nah, she's doin' fine, yeah.

I'm sure she's doing alright'.

'Excuse me, sir, do you want me

to check on your wife?'

'No, she's doin' fine.

I'm sure she's doing alright'.

Oh yeah.

Doing alright.

Doing alright.

Now, that was his life.

'Excuse me, sir, do you want me

to check on your wife?'

'Nah, she's doin' fine, yeah..

I'm sure she's doing alright'.

'Excuse me, sir, do you want me

to check on your wife?'

'She's doin' fine, yeah!

'I'm sure she's doing alright'.

Oh oh oh.

'I'm sure she's doing alright'.

Oh oh, yeah, yeah.

'She's doing fine! Yeah'.

'I'm sure she's doing alright!'

'She's doing alright, alright'.

Yeah, yeah, yeah!

Yeah, yeah, yeah!

Yeah, yeah, yeah!
