The National

Trophy Wife

No nobody wants to be

No no one's lover

No matter what they say

Lovers know they are the ones

Who one day have to go

Trophy wives

I know they wander

And find a young young man

Trophy wives

I know they wander

One time you were a good rabbit

To all the girls

And all their lovely mothers

You tried a piece of everything

Now nothing turns you on

Trophy wives

I know they wander

And find a young young man

Trophy wives

I know they wander

Run run baby I don't feel alive

But I'm pretty and I'm pretty sure

I'm gonna be alright to drive

To new jack city for a younger man

With a better brain

I fell in love with you

No matter what you say

But you were right about the reasons

I don't want to be

What I'm becoming

Your trophy wife

I know they wander

And find a young young man

You trophy wife

I know they wander

And find a young man

Your trophy wife

I know they wander
