carolyn, let me tell you what i've heard about a man today
he didn't come home from work and he went away
til he came to a street bright in the night time like day
there they say he met up with some women
dressed up in yellow and scarlet
their warm lips like a honeycomb dripped with honey
and something about the smell
of strange perfume
made him feel warm and not alone
yes carolyn, a man will do that sometimes on his own
sometimes when he's lonely
and i believe a man might do that sometimes out of spite
but carolyn a man will do that always
when he's treated bad at home
