You've seen him on the street today
Heading for some sleaze cafe
He wasn?t alone
He wasn?t alone
Some beauty hung onto his arm
I shouldn?t need to be alarmed
He?s done it before
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 the blow
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
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 gov 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
Isn?t that so?
I don?t want to know
