| Honey, he’ll tell you better than I can!
|
| Sylvester, tell me 'bout this please, honey
|
| Girl, I’m in the dark just like you
|
| I really don’t know what happened…
|
| I got this letter
|
| And I ran to the telephone
|
| Picked it up and dialed the number
|
| And disconnected with no referral
|
| (sung):
|
| Was it something that I said (was it somethin' that i said)
|
| Was it something that you heard (was it somethin' that you heard)
|
| Why you treatin' me so bad (why you treat me so bad)
|
| I was the best man that you had
|
| Mm, mm, mm
|
| (spoken):
|
| Child, I was so through
|
| I went trackin' down the number
|
| Called the information couldn’t get nothin'
|
| And like I said girl, I don’t know what’s goin' on
|
| 'Cause like I said I thought I had my thing together
|
| (sung):
|
| Was it something that I said (was it somethin' that i said)
|
| Was it something that you heard (was it somethin' that you heard)
|
| Why are you treatin' me so bad (why are you treatin' me so bad)
|
| I was the best man that you had
|
| Mm, mm, mm
|
| (spoken):
|
| Now, I think I deserve at least a two-weeks notice
|
| After all the things we did
|
| And all the good times we had
|
| I mean, I just can’t throw them away like that with no explanation
|
| And if you won’t give me no answer
|
| I’ll ask you this one more time
|
| (sung):
|
| Was it something that I said (was it somethin' that I said)
|
| Was it something that you heard (was it somethin' that you heard)
|
| Why you treatin' me so bad (why are you treatin' me so bad)
|
| I was the best thing that you had
|
| Mm, mm, mm
|
| (spoken):
|
| Now, I want you to think about what I just said…
|
| While the music just moves and grooves
|
