Witness

I´m standing outside your window, baby
And there you are
Another year, another candle´s burning
for the party girl
No one even knows that you´re there
Happy Birthday, no one cares
You come around here,
You´d better bring a witness
Everyone in here´s on the guest list
And when you´re gone you won´t be missed
Keep one eye open
when you kiss
Your wishes won´t be coming true this year
Now darling don´t you cry
We´re going to teach you everything
You´ll learn to get by
Now lesson number one in homicide
is emotional murder is no crime
You come around here,
you´d better bring a witness
Everyone in here´s on the guest list
And when you´re gone you won´t be missed
Keep one eye open
when you kiss
Now sticks and stones, baby, break your bones
But the names, in here, can kill
We´d let you leave
but no one else wants you
Your ransom was not made
Now you ain´t got to stand up tall
But now baby, you must stand up
You come around here,
you´d better bring a witness
Everyone in here´s on the guest list
Now we´ve never been so impressed
Keep one eye open when, whenever you kiss
And there you are
Another year, another candle´s burning
for the party girl
No one even knows that you´re there
Happy Birthday, no one cares
You come around here,
You´d better bring a witness
Everyone in here´s on the guest list
And when you´re gone you won´t be missed
Keep one eye open
when you kiss
Your wishes won´t be coming true this year
Now darling don´t you cry
We´re going to teach you everything
You´ll learn to get by
Now lesson number one in homicide
is emotional murder is no crime
You come around here,
you´d better bring a witness
Everyone in here´s on the guest list
And when you´re gone you won´t be missed
Keep one eye open
when you kiss
Now sticks and stones, baby, break your bones
But the names, in here, can kill
We´d let you leave
but no one else wants you
Your ransom was not made
Now you ain´t got to stand up tall
But now baby, you must stand up
You come around here,
you´d better bring a witness
Everyone in here´s on the guest list
Now we´ve never been so impressed
Keep one eye open when, whenever you kiss
