Lyrics Paul Gilbert

Paul Gilbert

Wrong Man

Once upon a time lived a boy and a girl and another

Boy and the girl made plans so the other left home

Little bit late could have found a better way to discover

She chose the wrong man

She chose the wrong man

She chose the wrong

Man to raise her children

Man to share her bed

Man, what was she thinking

Will she go out of her head

If she hears this song

And she knows he's wrong

Once upon a time was a house in the middle of a country

English burnt it down but for now it's standing tall

The man inside got his job from acting funny

We chose the wrong man

We chose the wrong man

We chose the wrong

Man to run the country

Man to wield the sword

Man to spend the money

More than we can all afford

When we find it's gone

And we know he's wrong

Isolation could keep him away

We could put that dude in solitude

Incarceration, lock him away

Turn his days into night

Do two wrongs make a right?

For the wrong man

He's the wrong man

He's the wrong

Man from who we wanted

Not what we expect

Don't believe in giving

So that's all that he will get

When he hears this song

And he knows he's wrong
