Bad Advice

All of my heart went unto her,
She was my rock, my world,
But then that utmost betrayal, that cardinal sin
Saying she loved me while sleeping with him,
It wasn't the way I'd imagined my life,
Resenting and hating my treacherous wife,
But then it did dawn that all that I needed
Was to apply the advice I had already heeded:

When a promiscuous woman gets u depressed
And you find proof of that affair you'd already guessed
Forget all your problems and hasten to see
That life is so much better when easy and free,
And while you may think the world has come to an end
Its time for you to sleep with he very best friend

Revenge is a three-letter word,
A word you have probably already heard,
When it comes down to it I knew what came next,
This whole world revolves around sex.
It's the only way I could get my own back,
By getting her friend prostrate on her back
And then I would feel so satisfied,
Because of that age old advice that I had applied

When a promiscuous woman gets you depressed
And you find proof of that affair you'd already guessed
Forget all your problems and hasten to see
That life is so much better when easy and free,
And while you may think the world has come to an end
Its time for you to sleep with her very best friend

Now we are both as bad as each other,
We have both taken a 3rd party lover,
But none of that matched what we once had,
It just made me realise that I was so glad,
That I had someone else as who really knew me,
My partner my wife my confidante,
Now I am laid in the arms of another
All because I took the advice of my bachelor brother,

When a promiscuous woman gets you depressed
And you find proof of that affair you'd already guessed
Forget all your problems and hasten to see
That life is so much better when easy and free,
And while you may think the world has come to an end
Its time for you to sleep with her very best friend

I shouldn't have followed that icy advice,
Although I have to admit the sex was quite nice,
But what I really should have done is told her I loved her,
And couldn't contemplate loving another,
Because even as I laid in another one's bed
I still couldn't get her out of my head,
All it took was some bad brotherly advice,
To show that what I already had was better than nice

When a promiscuous woman gets u depressed
And you find proof of that affair you'd already guessed
Forget all your problems and hasten to see
That life can still return to one of happiness and glee
Because while you may think the world has come to an end
She is still your partner, your lover and eternal best friend.
