Witness Lyrics
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
And 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
