Lyrics
Something Is Wrong
Annie loves
Masquerading
Sure enough
I?ll be waiting all night
I can see
She?s a bad girl
The joke?s on me
I?m the last one to know
You better believe that something is wrong
You better be hightailin? out of this home tonight
You better believe that something is wrong
You better be backpackin? out to the road this time
If you know what?s good for you
Home by 5:00
Empty table
A telltale sign
I?m afraid I?ve been played again
Chorus
Annie loves
Masquerading
I?ve had enough
She?s a lady no more
Chorus
