Not My Fault
It’s not my fault, I wasn’t there at the time
You can’t prove that I did that crime
Leave me be; oh let me be free
No, no, wait come back, don't abandon me
Everyone needs someone else to blame (ha ha!)
That's just a rule of life, this silly game
But if you try to point that finger here (well)
I’ll hit you in the face, then disappear
It's not my fault, that’s not one of my designs
I shouldn’t pay these unreasonable fines
Give me peace, and sweet release
Wait, wait, where did your go? What about my needs?
I don’t know what about this is so dang hard (honestly)
I just need all your love and all your regard
But I’ll never take, whoa, I’ll never take responsibility
It’s a perfectly sound ontology (ye-heah)
It’s not my fault, oh it’s not my fault
It’s absolutely, positively
Try it and things might get grizzly
100 percent, not my fault
[gasping for breath]
So… so what I’m saying is it's not my fault, oh... oh Board!
