Don't get excited, don't say a word

It was committed discreetly
       G5        Bb5
It was handled so neatly
       F5              C5        D5       A5 A5
And it shouldn't surprise you at all, you know

Break all the records, burn the cassettes

I'd be lying if I told you that I had no regrets
              A5      C5
There were so many mistakes
           G5           Bb5
And what a difference it makes
             F5           C5           D5       A5
But still it shouldn't surprise you at all, you know
  G5       C5            G5          Bb5       A5
I said it shouldn't surprise you at all, you know

Now it's apparent, now it's a fact

So marshal your forces for another attack

You were so young and naive
            G5       Bb5
I know it's hard to believe
           F5             C5         D5       A5
But now it shouldn't surprise you at all, you know

No it shouldn't surprise you at all, you know

I said it shouldn't surprise you at all, you know
