Get away from me
How long [has this been going on]
How long
Baby 1, 2, 3
How long
How long [has the been going on, baby]
What's your problem
You aint getting enough from me
I aint crazy
I got the 411 you see
People talking
Telling me Im living in a make believe
Huh, ho
What's the matter
You aint man enough to face the truth
Don't chit and chatter
Youre out the door
Its over for you
Ive learned my lesson
Don't give my heart to no fool
But just for the record
CHORUS
How long
How long [has the been going on]
I wanna know
How long [you been doing me wrong]
How long [has the been going on]
How long [you been doing me wrong]
Oh
Get away from me
If you're thinking that youve pulled the plug on me
Im the one whose singing for the world to see
I can pick and choose from an assortment of masculinity
But just for the record
How long
CHORUS
How long, oh
How long [has the been going on]
I wanna know, hey, hey
How long [you been doing me wrong]
How long [has the been going on]
How long [you been doing me wrong]

Only I change my history
And Im giving you your walking papers, baby
Oh, hey, hey,hey
But just for the record
How long
