You've seen him on the street today Heading for some sleaze café He wasn't alone He wasn't alone Some beauty hung onto his arm I shouldn't need to be alarmed now He's done it before Yes he's done it before Where and how? I don't want to know
You think she's one of his old flames Some firey-looking kind of dame You found her dull but just the same She stole the show I don't want to know
Isn't it a crying shame? You wouldn't mention any name Afraid I couldn't stand the pain Or take a blow Well, I don't want to know
You've seen him on the downtown side Drinking hard and acting wild He was not alone Not on his own You say he looked a sorry sight You know he's had another fight Well, he's done it before Yes, he's done it before Where and how? I don't want to know
A smile breaks on your poker face Tells me you're gonna throw the Ace of Spades Drop it, and watch me fall on evil days And let me go I don't want to know
Why don't I try to understand? He's just as weak as any other man He'll come back to me in the end Now isn't that so?! I don't want to know!
