Strum
D-DU-UDU
He  fell in  love with the au  pair
When  she ran  her fingers through  his hair
And  said: "It's silky"
He  knew, of  course, that he ought to be feeling guilty
But,  no, he didn't care at  all
He  hadn't  felt this great  in years
Meanwhile,  his wife's  upstairs, in tears
Well,  it's so corny
Her  world's turned  upside down because  he felt horny
So  tell me, how can it be fair?
But  as they drive away she wonders  just how long
It'll  take for him to realise  how much he's wrong
And  when he  comes home  in disgrace
She'll  slam  the door  right in his face
Well  it's so sleazy
 (Her: I wish you could see me in a white dress, looking divine)
He  won't find coming  back here  quite as  easy
 (Her: I wish you could hear me sing like I did, my hymns and rhymes)
As  he found going  away
But  as they disappear she hopes it won't  be long
Before  he ends up realising  that he's wrong
