Lyrics

Stranglehold

I’m leaving like a bullet train
I’m leaving faster than you thought I’d make my way
And I’m guessing you’ll just stick around
I’m guessing you will be the last one outta town

This is easy
Easy-breezy
’Til you see me
Oh no Jon, you don’t!
Forget about our rigmarole?

You got a stranglehold
And you won’t let go
You got a stranglehold
On my leaving soul

But I’m leaving like the arrow flies
I’m leaving straight and narrow right between your spies
I will never be wholly rid of you
You will never be mine again tightening that noose

This is easy
Easy-breezy
’Til you see me
Oh no Jon, you don’t!
Forget about our rigmarole?

You got a stranglehold
On my leaving soul
You got a stranglehold
But you won’t let go

A stranglehold
On my leaving soul
No more stranglehold
’Cause you’re gon’ let go
