So you thought we were over?
Surprise, surprise.
We're not going anywhere,
So you fell on your sword again.
Tell me what the view's 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.
