John Doe Lyrics

Artist: Public Announcement

It's the middle of the day, And we both have thrown a fit, The tv is on,
But neither one of us is watching it, Now your problem is everytime
my pager go off, I don't pay it no mind, And my problem is every time
the phone rings, You go get it and you run and hide,
Now if it's two people between us that don't exist,
And we're both gonna go on lying, Ain't nothing good about
that in this thing baby, We're both guilty of the John Doe crime...

Chorus:

Who was the guy that paged you?
I don't know.
Who was the guy that waved at you?
I don't know.
Who was the guy that called you?
I don't know.
Who was the guy that I saw you with?
I don't know.
How did ya get some extra money?
Uuhh, Don't know.
When I needed some you told me
I don't know.
Is this love affair over?
I don't know.
Tell me a name:
John Doe.

Yeah, I know this thing started out all good, Remember when you
didn't have a dime I did what I could, Took a chance and put you
on my account, Now you're flossin some female showin the amount,
That's why I trip off shit like your pager, All in my face,
Blowin up and you'll get it later, And the reason I run in the
room with the phone all the time, Because of you,
I'm guilty of the John Doe crime.

Chorus:

Now who was the girl that paged you?
I-I dont know.
Who was the girl that called you?
I-I don't know.
Who was the girl that waved at you?
I-I dont know.
Who was the girl I saw you with?
I don't know.
How did ya get some extra money?
I-I don't know.
When I needed some ya told me
I-I don't know.
Is this affair over?
I don't know.
Tell me her name:
Jane Doe.
