They've been married for seventeen years
But you can see she don't trust him at all
and you can see she don't believe he's not cheating
you can't blame the poor girl
he's been a busy man
all his life, like the rest of us
one day she caught him with another girl
he said it was his mother
she caught him with another one
he said it was his sister
he's in deep water again
I don't know what he's gonna say today
but I won't be surprised
if he gets out of this one
like the other ones
cause I know, he's the Houdini
of cheaters, hear him now when he says

CHORUS
cool down baby, everything is under control
It doesn't matter where I get my appetite, I always eat at home (x2)

They've been married for seventeen years
but you can see he don't trust her at all
and you can see he don't believe she's not cheating
you can't blame the poor man
she's been a busy girl
all her life, like the rest of us
one day he caught her with another man
she said it was her father
he caught her with another one
she said it was her brother
I believe it is true
bird of a feather fly together
she has learned from the master
I wasn't surprised at all when I heard her say-ey
