I should've known when the cop told meI'm going too fast, he told meSpeed like that and it's bound to beA hell of a crash, he told meBetter late than you don't get thereDo the mathOh, you oughta be gratefulFor what you haveWell, what if I refuse to learn?I see a flame, I wanna get burnedHow can I blame you?For showin' up at the partyLookin' through me in that waySaw somethin' inside of me breakSaw me wanna make a mistakeHow can I blame youFor takin' over my daydreamsI wanna scream it, I'm sorryBut I can't 'cause I'm long overdueOh, I wanna blame it on youWhy's it hard for a man to be satisfied?Oh, I got one glimpseOf the green grass on the other side'cause it's all been comin' to thisAnd, goddamn, I won't be deniedOh, I'm gonna take one more chance tonightOh, what if I refuse to learn?I see the flame grow, I gotta get burnedHow can I blame youFor showin' up at the party?Lookin' through me in that waySaw somethin' inside of me breakSaw me wanna make a mistakeHow can I blame youFor takin' over my daydreams?I wanna scream it, I'm sorryBut I can't 'cause I'm long overdueOh, I wanna blame it on youDid I know my weakness?Did I mount all my defenses?Did I tell you to leave me alone?How can I blame you?You saw somethin' inside of me breakYou saw me wanna make a mistakeHow can I blame you?You saw somethin' inside of me breakYou saw me wanna make a mistakeHow can I blame youFor takin' over my daydreams?I wanna scream it, I'm sorryBut I can't 'cause I'm long overdueOh, I wanna blame it on youI wanna blame it on youI wanna blame it on you, yeah
