They've been married for seventeen years
But you can see she don't trust him at all
And you can see she don't believe
That he is not cheating
You can't blame a poor girl
He's been a busy man all his life
Jus' like the rest of us
One day she caught him with another girl
(He said it was his mother)
She caught with another one
(He said it was his sister)
He's in deep water again
I don't know what he gonna say today
But I won't be surprise
If he gets out of this one like the other ones
'Cause I know he's the Houdini of cheaters
Hear him now when he says

Cool down, baby, everything is under control
It doesn't matter where I get my appetite
I will always eat at home

Cool down, baby, everything is under control
It doesn't matter where I get my appetite
I will always eat at home

(She said it was her brother)
I believe that it is true
Birds of a feather fly together
She has learned from a master
I wasn't surprise at all
When I heard her say, hey

Cool down, baby, everything is under control
It doesn't matter where I get my appetite
I will always eat at home
