Foolish Behaviour

Rod Stewart · Other Songs - Rod Stewart

Can I introduce myself?

I'm a man of panache and wealth

Sound in mind, body, soul and health

Why I wanna kill my wife?

I have this urge to take her life

Been planing for years to get rid of her

Not divorce, I really do mean to kill her

She's so full of useless information and trivia

That's why I wanna kill my wife

I have a duty to take her life

Her stupid friends get right up my nose

They all wear annoyingly sensible clothes

They're all so bleeding grandiose

You know why I should kill her friends

They're all driving Mercedes Benz

He'll escape down into Mexico

Sell the house and find a nice young girl

He'll laugh and sing and he won't work anymore

Should I string her up or strangle her in bed?

Suffocate that little venomous head

Or perhaps I'll just whip her to death

Listen, do me a favor, kill my wife

Do it for mankind, take her life

Or should I act quite cold and deliberate

Or maybe blow out her brains with a bullet?

They'll think suicide, they won't know who done it

I'm gonna kill my wife, I'm really gonna take her life

He'll escape down into Mexico

Go down into Mexico

Sell the house and find a nice young girl

Find a nice young girl

He'll laugh and sing and he won't work no more

The moment of truth has come

I'm at the point of no return

I've got my hands locked round her throat

I'm about to kill my wife

Don't stop me now, I'm gonna take her life

Too late now, I'm gonna kill my wife

Can't help myself, I'm gonna take her life

Telephone rang and he woke from his sleep

His wife snoring soundly next to him

It was all a very nasty dream
