We got some thin we both know it,
We dont talk too much about it
Aint no real big secret, all the same,
Somehow we get around it

Listen, it dont really matter to me
Baby, you believe what you wanna believe
You see, you dont have to live like a refugee

Somewhere, somehow, somebody must have
Kicked you around some
Tell me why you wanna lay there,
Revel in your abandon

Honey, it dont make no difference to me
Baby, everybodys had to fight to be fre e
You see, you dont have to live like a refugee
No baby, you dont have to live like a refugee

Baby, we aint the first
Im sure a lot of other lovers been burned
Right now this aint real to you
Its one of those things you got to feel to be true

Somewhere, somehow, somebody must have
Kicked you around some
Who knows, maybe you were kidnapped,
Tied-up, taken away, and held for ransom

Honey, it dont really matter to me
Baby, everybodys ha d to fight to be free
You see, you dont have to live like a refugee
No, you dont have to live like a refugee
Baby, you dont have to live like a refugee

The problem is all inside your head, she said to me
The answer is easy if you take it logically
Id like to help you in your struggle to be free
There must be fifty ways to leave your lover

She said its really not my habit to intrude
Furthermore, I hope my meaning wont be lost or misconstrued
But Ill 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 dont need to be coy, roy
Just get yourself free
Hop on the bus, gus
You dont 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
You dont need to be coy, roy
Just listen to me <—-——
Hop on the bus, gus
You dont 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 dont we both just sleep on it tonight
And I believe in the morning youll 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 dont need to be coy, roy
Just get yourself free
Hop on the bus, gus
You dont need to discuss much
Just drop off the key, lee
And get yourself free

You just slip out the back, jack
Make a new plan, stan
You dont need to be coy, roy
Just listen to me <—-——-
Hop on the bus, gus
You dont need to discuss much
Just drop off the key, lee
And get yourself free

Look what they’ve done to my song, ma
Look what they’ve done to my song
Well it’s the only thing that I could do half right
And it’s turning out all wrong, ma
Look what they’ve done to my song.

Look what they’ve done to my brain, ma
Look what they’ve done to my brain
Well they picked it like a chicken bone
And I think I’m half insane, ma
Look what they’ve done to my song.

I wish I could find a good book to live in
Wish I could find a good book
Will if I cold find a real good book
I’d never have to come out and look
Look what they’ve done to my song.

It’ll be all right ma, maybe it’ll be okay
Well if the people are buying tears I’ll be rich someday, ma
Look what they’ve done to my song.

Ils ont change ma chanson ma
Ils ont change ma chanson
C’est la seule chose que je peuz faire
Et ce n’est pas bon ma
Ils ont change ma chanson.

Look what they’ve done to my song, ma
Look what they’ve done to my song
Well they tied it up in a plastic bag and they turned it upside down
Look what they’ve done to my song, ma.

Look what they’ve done to my song, ma
Look what they’ve done to my song
It’s the only thing I could do all right and they turned it upside down
Look what they’ve done to my song, ma.
