Spoken:



The cat was away

The mouse did play

Undo the trap

I'll never take your cheese again



Verse:



My answer is (No)

The question was (Do)

Do I have the strength to be unfaithful?

(You) have put me off (For)

For much too long (I)

Now I'm gonna pledge just for you, baby

Yeah



Bridge:



I think about ya

All the time

Ooh-ooh

Hey-ya hey-ya hey-ya



I think about ya

All the time

Ooh-ooh

Honey



Chorus:



I'm gonna be (I'm gonna be baby)

True to thee (True to thee)

I'm gonna be (I'm gonna be baby)

True to thee (True to thee)



Verse:



(True)

I learned my lesson (To)

And did confession (Thee)

Show mercy and forgiveness for me



(You)

The cat's away (Me)

The mouse did play (I)

Undo the trap

Cause I'm never gonna take your cheese again
