Should I Betray? �
Cm
Should I betray you to your spouse?
D7
The wife who waits back at the house
Bbm
She doesn�t know that you�re a louse
Fm
That�s not the man she wed
She doesn�t know the deals you make
The throats you cut, the vows you break
To buy up some old lady�s stake
Quick before she�s dead
C#m
She doesn�t see your oily smarm
G#sus4
You pour on in the place of charm
C#m
When you�ve got some shopgirl by the arm
G#sus4
Steering her into bed
That virgin forest you chopped down
To build another ugly town
I�ll tell your wife you bribed them round
To back your plan instead
But perhaps she doesn�t want to see
The heel that you turned out to be
That�s why she�ll take a gin or three
To drive doubts from her head
While she�s working hard enough
With housework, kids, and all that stuff
You�re out there with some bit of fluff
Cruising on the Med
She thought the leopard�s spots were paint
She thought she�d turn you to a saint
Kept hoping, though the hope grew faint
That you were better bred
