I can see his feet
On the kitchen floor
Moving to and fro and
He doesn't know
That I know, that I know
I can follow words
As they come
One by one
By one by one
He doesn't know that I know
He doesn't know that I know, no
He doesn't know that I know
He doesn't know that I know
That I know
He is master of reason but I
I have my reasons for leaving
The work and life
Of a brilliant man and his wife
Oh, these men without women, they
They all need constant forgiving
Their wondering minds
Feed on everything
Leave you withering away
As I smile my smile
Here he comes
All through breakfast
I bite my tongue
Where do I belong?
Hey! Drop the butter knife
Look me in the eye
All the while I am thinking
He doesn't know that I know
That I know
He is master of reason but I
I have my reasons for leaving
The work and life
Of a brilliant man and his wife
Oh, these men without women, they
They all need constant forgiving
Their hungry hands
Must have everything
Here and now and
He is master of reason but I
I have my reasons for leaving
The work and life
Of a brilliant man and his wife
