Lipps Inc. - How Long

Lipps Inc. version from Pucker Up album

How Long (Paul Carrack) lyrics

How long has this been goin' on
How long has this been goin' on
How long has this been goin' on
How long has this been goin' on

Well, your friends with their fancy persuasion
Don't' admit that it's part of a scheme
But I can't help but have my suspicion
'Cause I ain't quite as dumb as I seem

Well, you said you were never intending
To break up our scene in this way
But there ain't any use in pretending
It could happen to us any day

How long has this been goin' on
How long has this been goin' on
How long has this been goin' on
How long has this been goin' on

(Repeat)

Well, your friends with their fancy persuasion
Don't' admit that it's part of a scheme
But I can't help but have my suspicion
'Cause I ain't quite as dumb as I seem

Well, you said you were never intending
To break up our scene in this way
But there ain't any use in pretending
It could happen to us any day

How long has this been goin' on
How long has this been goin' on
How long has this been goin' on
