John Doe

(album: Don't Hold Back - 2001)

[Public Announcement:]
It's the middle of the day and we both have thrown a fit. The TV
is on and neither one of us is watching it? Your problem is everytime my
pager off, I don't pay it no mind. And my problem is everytime the phone
rings, you'll go it and you run and hide. Now what's the two people both
between us that don't exist. And we're both going to go on lying. Ain't
nothing good about that in this thing baby. We both guilty of the John Doe crime!

[Chorus:]
Who's the guy that paged you?
I don't know.
Who's the guy that waved at you?
I don't know.
Who's the guy called you?
I don't know.
Who's the guy that I saw you with?
I don't know.
How did you get some extra money?
I 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 his name:
John Doe.

[Girl:]
Yeah, I know this thing started all good, but remember you didn't have
a dime I did what I could. Took chances to put you on my account.
Now you flossing some female showing your 'mount.
That's why I trip on shit like your pager.
All in my face blowing up and you'll get it later.
The reason I run in the room with the phone all the time,
because of you, I'm guilty of the John Doe crime!

[Girl Chorus:]
Who's the girl that paged you?
I I don't know.
Who's the girl that called you?
I I don't know.
Who's the girl that waved at you?
I I don't know.
Who's the girl I saw you with?
I don't know!!!
How did you get some extra money?
I I don't know.
When I needed some you told me?
I I don't know.
Is this love affair over?
I don't know.
Tell me her name:
Jane Doe!
