Lyrics
The problem is all inside your head", he said to me
The answer is easy if you take it logically
I'd like to help you in your struggle to be free
There must be fifty ways to leave your lover
He said it's really not my habit to intrude
And furthermore, I hope my meaning won't be lost or misconstrued
I'll repeat myself, at the risk of being good
There must be fifty ways to leave your lover
Fifty ways to leave your lover
You just slip out the back, Jack
Make a new plan, Stan
You don't need to be coy, Roy
Just listen to me
Hop on the bus, Gus
You don't need to discuss much
Drop off the key, Lee
And get yourself free
He said it grieves me so to see you in such pain
And 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
He said why don't we both just sleep on it tonight
And I believe that in the morning you'll 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
You just slip out the back, Jack
Make a new plan, Stan
You don't need to be coy, Roy
Just listen to me
Hop on the bus, Gus
You don't need to discuss much
Drop off the key, Lee
And get yourself free
Slip out the back, Jack
Make a new plan, Stan
You don't need to be coy, Roy
Just listen to me
Hop on the bus, Gus
You don't need to discuss much
Drop off the key, Lee
And get yourself free
