LYRICS

So you thought we were over

Surprise, surprise

We're not going anywhere

So you fell on your sword again

Tell me what the views like

Deep down in your carpet

You were straight, you were straight now you're twisted

You're right, you're right

Burn the joint to leave the way you came in

(Hello, surprise)

Don't you turn, turn out your light

(Hello, surprise)

Surprise, Surprise

(Hello, surprise)

Don't you turn your day into night

(Hello, surprise)

Surprise, Surprise

We all prayed, we all prayed you'd rise again

From the hard shoulder

What the doctor ordered

Gotta fix, gotta fix what's not broken

All broke, all broke, I'm busted

Play twenty one and over

(Hello, surprise)

Don't you turn, turn out your light

(Hello, surprise)

Surprise, Surprise

(Hello, surprise)

Don't you turn, your day into night

(Hello, surprise)

Surprise, Surprise

Still not satisfied

Still not satisfied

Still not satisfied

Still not satisfied

Falling backwards into darkness

Laughing, reckless, hiding distress

I've got a message for you

You're the one who makes it come true

(Hello, surprise)

Don't you turn, turn out your light

(Hello, surprise)

Surprise, Surprise

(Hello, surprise)

Don't you turn, your day into night

(Hello, surprise)

Surprise, Surprise

Still not satisfied

(Hello, surprise)

Still not satisfied

Still not satisfied

(Hello, surprise)

Still not satisfied

Still not satisfied

Still not satisfied

Still not satisfied

Still not satisfied
