How long has this been goin' on?
How long has this been goin' on?

Well, your friends with their fancy persuasions
Don't admit that it's part of a scheme,
But I can't help but have my suspicions
'Cause I ain't quite as dumb as I seem.

And you said you were never intendin'
To break up our scene in this way,
But there ain't any use in pretendin',
It could happen to us any day.

How long has this been goin' on?
How long has this been goin' on?

(Musical interlude)

Oh, your friends with their fancy persuasions

Don't admit that it's part of a scheme,
But I can't help but have my suspicions
'Cause I ain't quite as dumb as I seem.

And you say you were never intendin'
To break up our scene in this way,
But there ain't any use in pretendin',
It could happen to us any day.

So how long has this been goin' on?
How long has this been goin' on?
How long has this been goin' on?
How long - how long has this been goin' on?
How long has this been goin' on?
