So you think you're a Romeo
Playing a part in a picture show
Take the long way home
Take the long way home
'Cause you're the joke
Of the neighbourhood
Why should you care
If you're feeling good
Take the long way home,
Take the long way home
But there are times that you feel
You're part of the scenery
All the greenery is coming down boy
And then your wife seems to think
You're part of the furniture
Oh it's peculiar, she used to be so nice
When lonely days turn to lonely nights
You take a trip to the city lights
And take the long way home
Take the long way home
You never see what you want to see
Forever playing to the gallery
You take the long way home,
Take the long way home
