The Koonyados - Your New Man

Well, you moved away
Walked out on me
For too long, you were feeling unfree
You finally pulled the trigger
Put a bullet in me
Will I let myself bleed out
Will I let it be

Well, you got yourself a new man
And it didn't take long
I hope he's doing right
Don't do you wrong
And maybe one day
I'll ask you what he's like
But today ain't that day
No, 'cause it gimme' fright

I don't want you to tell me your new man
Is something like something I can't understand
He stays true to his word and true to you
Does the polar opposite of how I do
(Yeah, does the polar opposite)

Like a real-life adult, he straightens his tie
One won't hang around my neck
Till the day I die
The only thing I wear is a ratty t-shirt
You know the one you got me
At the Stones concert
Back when we used to laugh
And have so much fun
Whatever happened to our time in the sun
Well, I guess you moved on
While I fell and stayed behind
Now I'm stuck right here singing
Yet another nursery rhyme
(And it goes something like this)

I don't want you to tell me your new man
Is something like something; I can't understand
He stays true to his word, yeah, and he's true to you, honey
Does the polar opposite, baby, of what I do
