[Verse 1] She said to me, "Go steady on me" Won't you tell me what the wise men said When they came down from heaven Smoked nine till seven All the shit that they could find
[Pre-Chorus] But they couldn't escape from you Couldn't be free of you And now they know there's no way out And they're really sorry now for what they've done They were three wise men just tryna have some fun
[Chorus] Look who's alone now It's not me, it's not me Those three wise men They've got a semi by the sea Gotta ask yourself the question Where are you now? Gotta ask yourself the question Where are you now?
[Verse 2] Really sorry now, they weren't to know They got caught up in your talent show With you pernickety little bastards in your fancy dress Who just judge each other and try to impress
[Pre-Chorus] But they couldn't escape from you Couldn't be free of you And now they know there's no way out And they're really sorry now for what they've done They were three wise men just tryna have some fun
[Chorus] Look who's alone now It's not me, it's not me Those three wise men They've got a semi by the sea Gotta ask yourself the question Where are you now? Gotta ask yourself the question Where are you now?
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus] Look who's alone now It's not me, it's not me Those three wise men They've got a semi by the sea Gotta ask yourself the question Where are you now? Gotta ask yourself the question Where are you now?
[Post-Chorus] Where are you now? Where are you now?
[Outro] Gotta ask yourself the question Where are you now? Gotta ask yourself the question Where are you now?
