  • I should have known that this would happen from the start
    This kind of function's going to have to fall apart
    I guess before I would have sworn that we were friends
    And in this problem must award some logic trend

    Well, I still don't understand what this whole thing's about
    And all the words that you said are somehow stuck in my mouth
    This was going so well, but I don't know what I did
    All I really can tell is

    It's a hit
    It's a hit
    It's a hit

    Well, there's only so much drama I can stand
    This is just about as far as I will bend
    So get your hands off my lapel because I think it's time to go
    You ought to know that or you ought to know

    And I still don't understand what this whole thing's about
    And all the words that you said are somehow stuck in my mouth
    This was going so well, but I don't know what I did
    All I really can tell is

    It's a hit
    It's a hit
    It's a hit

    As I was falling down the stairs and out the door
    Yes, I heard you yell my name, but I'm not sure
    You know, before I could have sworn that we were friends
    Somehow that's how these parties always seem to end

    Well, I still don't understand what this whole thing's about
    And all the words that you said are somehow stuck in my mouth
    This was going so well, but I don't know what I did
    All I really can tell is that
    I always get hit

    Well, I still don't understand what this whole thing's about
    And all the words that you said are somehow stuck in my mouth
    I guess I might take it back, but I'm not sure what I did
    All I know for a fact is

    It's a hit
    It's a hit
    It's a hit Writer/s: CHRISTOPHER CAIN, KEITH MURRAY, MICHAEL TAPPER
