She phones from work at quittin' time
She's late getting home
Something in her voice
Just before love fell apart
I won't stand for another man
Oh, I suspect foul play
It all starts making sense
Lately, every Wednesday night
This makes five straight Wednesday nights
No, no, no, that's my hard-fast rule
And that's no coincidence
This is my last Wednesday night
Her old boss quit two months ago
Alerted my suspicious heart
Of all this extra pay
She'd better have some cold, hard facts
Something's going on wrong
She said she's makin' double time
But I suspect foul play, I suspect foul play
She came home all smiles that day
Sitting here and thinking back
Oh, I suspect foul play
Waitin' like a fool
She'd better have some kind of evidence
But I suspect foul play, said I suspect foul play
Says the boss asked her to stay
I've heard that warning sign before
Said they hired a younger man
'Cause I suspect foul play, said I suspect foul play
Yeah, yeah, foul play
