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
