My Affair

When I was just a child

My folks would drive me wild

They'd spy upon my every move

Until it drove me to despair

They told me what to wear

They told me not to cut my hair

But that's all over now

I had to tell them anyhow

It's my affair

Where I go and what I do

It's my affair oh yeah

It's my affair

It's up to me and not to you

It's my affair

That's the way I want to keep it

I kissed the boy in secret

Thrilled me to the very core

I couldn't stop I wanted more and

I didn't hear the door and

They caught me on the floor

With my affair

And when we first got wed

We used to stay in bed

All day and night all night and day

We bedded half our lives away

But that's all over now

We move in higher circles

Chomping through the upper crust

I couldn't see you for the dust

And then you met that girl

Who left you with your money spent

And now it's no concern of yours

If I sleep with the President

It's my affair

And if I don't come home tonight

It's my affair alright

It's my affair

Who I see is up to me

It's my affair

That's how I want to keep it

I kiss the boys in secret

Hiding in the parking lot

Is just as far as I have got but

If the phone should ring and

There's no one there

Then it's my affair

Eso es asunto de ella

Donde va why lo que hare

Well it's all over now

You've seen the last of me

And I don't have to put up with you

Giving me the third degree

So you go on your way

And don't come sneaking round the back door

Trying to get yourself
