Lyrics:

You know he's not the one for you but that's no fault of mine.
He knows that I'm a friend of yours but doesn't know I've crossed the line.
I know you've got a man in the picture but it hasn't stopped me yet.
We've all been in one situation or another we regret.

Now I'm the other man, no one's rootin for me.
If I'm the other man, nature will abhorr me.

You know I want to keep my distance, does it happen anyway?
He knows you're going to drift apart and there's nothing he can say.
I know that he's a stand-up guy, but that's none of my concern.
We've all been in one situation or another, it's my turn.

To be the other man, no one's sympathising,
When you're the other man that everyone despises.

He's going to find out that the rumours are true.
The love that I've still unbeknownst to you.
He'll found out so I'll tell you because,
You gotta find out before he does.

I know you've got a man in the picture but it hasn't stopped me yet.
We've all been in one situation or another we regret.

Now I'm the other man. No one's rootin for me.
If I'm the other man, nature will abhorr me.
Yeah, no one sympathises,
When you're the other man, that everyone despises.

Yeah, yeah,
We've all been in one situation or another,
We've all been in one situation or another,
We've all been in one situation or another
