Intro

(no chord)

Everybody hold still

 | | % | % | |

I knew I shouldn't have left the apartment

I knew I should've stayed in watching T-V

I knew I shouldn't have left the apartment

I knew I should've stayed in watching T-V

 If I'd looked at the moon

 And looked at my stars

 I wouldn't be in this mess I'm in right now

I should've known when my car would not get started

It should've clicked when indecision read its question mark

I should've known when my car would not get started

It should've clicked when indecision read its question mark

 If I'd ran back for the phone

 But instead I let it ring

 I wouldn't be in this mess I'm in right now

Everybody hold still

Nobody gets hurt

Everybody hold still

Nobody gets hurt

I could've left all my cash and taken a credit card

I should've said 'Don't wear no jewelry you're looking fine'

I could've left all my cash and taken a credit card

I should've said 'Don't wear no jewelry you're looking fine'

 If I'd ran back for the phone

 But instead I let it ring

 I wouldn't be in this mess I'm in right now

Everybody hold still

Nobody gets hurt

Everybody hold still

Nobody gets hurt

Please don't take all of my money mister

 Don't take my money mister Don't take my money, money

Everybody hold still

Nobody gets hurt

Everybody hold still

Nobody gets hurt
