Oh, you say that it wasn't your fault
The reason that you're late
You had some good excuses
And your alibis are great

You think by now you would have
Used up all your lies
Who are you gonna blame it on this time?

Get out in the open
So I can plainly see
You have never failed
At making me believe

Oh, I can't wait to hear
I like to see you shine
So who are you gonna blame it on this time?

Oh, I want to believe you
And I do every time
It's what keeps us together
And that's fine

So I can't wait to hear
I like to see you shine
So who are you gonna blame it on this time?

Oh, I want to believe you
And I do every time
It's what keeps us together
And that's fine

So I can't wait to hear
I like to see you shine
So who are you gonna blame it on this time?
So who are you gonna blame it on this time?
