The Other Man

You know he's not the one for you

But that's not fault of mine

He knows that I'm a friend of yours

But doesn't know I've crossed the line

I know you've got a man in the picture

But it hasn't stopped me yet

We've all been in one situation or another we regret

Now I'm the other man, no one's rooting for me

If I'm the other man, nature will abhor me

You know I want to keep my distance

Does it happen anyway?

He knows you're gonna drift apart

And there's nothing he can say

I know that he's a stand-up guy

But that's none of my concern

We've all been in one situation or another, it's my turn

To be the other man, no one sympathizes

When you're the other man everyone despises

He's gonna find out that the rumors are true

The ones that are still unbeknownst to you

He'll find out, so I'll tell you because

You gotta find out before he does

I know you've got a man in the picture

But it hasn't stopped me yet

We've all been in one situation or another we regret

Now I'm the other man, no one's rooting for me

If I'm the other man, nature will abhor me

Yeah, no one sympathizes

When you're the other man that everyone despises

Yeah

We've all been in one situation or another

We've all been in one situation or another

We've all been in one situation or another
