Lately you've been acting kind of strange, it's true
Everybody knows there's been a change in you
You come home for awhile and then you're gone again
Well I thought I'd better let you know just where I stand

I'm tired of bein' the loser in this game you play
You're gonna wish you'd been truer, when I'm gone someday
You'll try to get me to come back, but I won't make a deal
And I thought I'd better let you know just how I feel

I feel like crying each night when I'm alone
I feel like dying each time you don't come home
But that's all over now, I've learned a thing or two
I might just go out and find myself somebody new

And just in case you're wonderin' what it's all about
Well, I thought I'd better let you know I'm checking out

I feel like crying each night when I'm alone
I feel like dying each time you don't come home
But that's all over now, I've learned a thing or two
I might just go out and find myself somebody new

And just in case you're wonderin' what it's all about
Well, I thought I'd better let you know I'm checking out
Well, I thought I'd better let you know I'm checking out...
