These buttons are in the wrong holes again
Let's straighten them out
Let's straighten this whole damn mess we've gotten ourselves in
This time didn't go the way I was hoping
You've gotta get out, I've gotta get out
Keep checking the mirrors, call me as soon as you can

Oh yeah, oh yeah
Oh yeah, oh yeah, can you keep it, can you keep it in?

Hey Doreen, we know what you've seen
It's the way, the way it had to be
Hey Doreen, we know what you've seen
It's the way it had to be 
Cover your tracks, you know you can't take it back

The sun's coming up, did you make it in time?
If anyone asks you
You weren't there, I found the perfect alibi
A black dahlia blooms and then she dies
Lie after lie
Is what we do best and share in common, you and I

Oh yeah, oh yeah
Oh yeah, yeah, can you keep it, can you keep it in?

Hey Doreen, we know what you've seen
It's the way, the way it had to be
All your plans, just a nickel in her hands
It's the way it had to be
Cover your tracks, you know you can't take it back
Hey Doreen, we know what you've seen
It's the way it had to be
Cover your tracks, you know you can't take it back

Mother, you can try to find a place to hide 
You can try but they'll find me
Mother, you can try to find a place to hide
You can try but they'll find me
Mother, you can try to find a place to hide
You can try but they'll find me

Can't take it back
Can't take it back

Hey Doreen, we know what you've seen
It's the way, the way it had to be
All your plans, just a nickel in her hands
It's the way it had to be
Cover your tracks, you know you can't take it back
Hey Doreen, we know what you've seen
It's the way it had to be
Cover your tracks, you know you can't take it back
