You've seen him on the street today
Heading for some sleaze caf\'{e}
He wasn't alone
He wasn't alone
Some beauty hung onto his arm
I shouldn't need to be alarmed
He's done it before
He's done it before
Where and how?
I don't want to know

You think she's one of his old flames
Some firey-looking kind of dame
You found her dull but just the same
She stole the show
I don't want to know

Isn’t it a crying shame
You wouldn’t mention any name
Afraid I couldn’t stand the pain
Or take the blow
I don’t want to know

You've seen him on the downtown side
Drinking hard and acting wild
He was not alone
Not on his own
You say he looked a sorry sight
You know he's had another fight
He's done it before
Yes, he's done it before
Where and how?
I don't want to know

smile breaks on your poker face
Tells me you're gonna throw the Ace of Spades
Drop it, and watch me fall on evil days
And let me go
I don't want to know

Why don't I try to understand
He's just as weak as any other man [bad word] back to me in the end
Isn't that so?
I don't want to know
