It ain't safe to walk out tonight 
There's always someone ready to start a fight 
What did I do? What did I say? 
And did I look at you, the wrong way?

Another guilty feeling comes as you wake up 
What did you do? What did you say? 
And would you act the same the next day? 

So don't you tell me that you're sorry 
And don't you tell me it's all good 

Leave it leave it leave it out 
If you're coming in for trouble then you know you're going out 
Leave it leave it leave it out 
What's the point of acting big just because there's a crowd 

It ain't safe to go out tonight 
There's always someone ready to start a fight 
What did I do? What did I say? 
And did I look at you, the wrong way? 

So don't you tell me that you're sorry 
And don't you tell me it's all good 

Leave it leave it leave it out 
If you're coming in for trouble then you know you're going out 
Leave it leave it leave it out 
What's the point of acting big just because there's a crowd 
Leave it leave it leave it out 
If you're coming in for trouble then you know you're going out 
Leave it leave it leave it out 
What's the point of acting big just because there's a crowd
