[Verse 1: DeQuarius Slaton]
Why did you let him getaway?
After the staring, what did you say?
Shot me down as cold as ice
Scream in my face then pushed you back
She should have spied down his skin
Now it's my job to get revenge
Why did you let him getaway?
Why did you let him geta-?

[Pre-Chorus: DeQuarius]
Too bad, forget it
'Cause it's Al Capone said it
So sad, regret it
'Cause a madman's out tonight

[Chorus: Ace Edition]
You should have told her
Nobody ever showed her about us
No one's sleeping
Nobody should be grievin' this way

You should have told her
Nobody ever showed her about us
No one's sleeping
Nobody should be grievin' this way
[Verse 2: DeQuarius]
Why did you let him getaway?
After the staring, what did you say?
Shot me down as cold as ice
Scream in my face then pushed you back
She should have spied down his skin
Now it's my job to get revenge
Why did you let him getaway?
Why did you let him geta-?

[Pre-Chorus: DeQuarius]
Too bad, forget it
'Cause it's Al Capone said it
So sad, regret it
And it told her out tonight

[Chorus: Ace Edition]
You should have told her
Nobody ever showed her about us
No one's sleeping
Nobody should be grievin' this way

You should have told her
Nobody ever showed her about us
No one's sleeping
Nobody should be grievin' this way
[Insturmental Break: DeQuarius Slaton]
Ow!
Hoo!
Girl, you so fine, ooh

[Pre-Chorus: DeQuarius Slaton]
Too bad, forget it
'Cause it's Al Capone said it
So sad, regret it
And a man is out tonight

[Chorus: Ace Edition]
You should have told her
Nobody ever showed her about us
No one's sleeping
Nobody should be grievin' this way

You should have told her
Nobody ever showed her about us
No one's sleeping
Nobody should be grievin' this way

[Chorus: (DeQuarius) & Ace Edition]
You should have told her (should have told her)
Nobody ever showed her about us (Oh, ba-da)
No one's sleeping (No-one's lovin')
Nobody should be grievin' this way (Oh-ba-ba)
You should have told her (Should have told her)
Nobody ever showed her about us (Oh, ba-da)
No one's sleeping (No-one's love)
Nobody should be grievin' this way (Oooh!)

[Outro: Ace Edition & (DeQuarius) + Michael Jackson]
Why did you let him getaway?
After the staring, what did you say?
Shot me down as cold as ice
Scream in my face then pushed you back
She should have spied under his skin
Now it's my job to get revenge
Why did you let him getaway?
Why did you let him getaway? (Hoo!)

Doo-doo-do-lo-do-doo
Hee-hee-hee-hee!, Hoo!

(Girl, girl, girl, girl, girl, girl)
(Girl, girl, girl, girl, girl)
