He got away with thousands of dollars
He got away from the state policeHe got away with emotional murder
He slipped away with the summer breezeIt's not fair to call it a day
It's not fair to just walk away
It's not fair to bring me down
It's not fair to leave a mess behindHe got away with the ultimate shakedown
He ran away from the scene of the crime
He got away from everyone in his way
Gone and not a trace left behindIt's not fair to catch me out
It's not fair to leave me in doubt
No it's not fair to not explain
It's not fair to leave a mess behindHow'd you pull it off?
How'd you get away with it?
I never stood a chance
Oh, you left me to dieIt's not fair to pull me down
It's not fair to make me run around
No, it's not fair to not explain
It's not fair to make me ask you why
To leave a mess behind
To make me ask you why
