[Intro: Michael Jackson]
Ow!
Cha!
Shoo-cha-choo-cha!

[Verse 1: Nikko Arnold]
As he came into the window
Was a sound of a crescendo
He came into her apartment
He left the bloodstains on the carpet
She ran underneath the table
He could see she was unable
So she ran into the bedroom
She was struck down, it was her doom

[Pre-Chorus: Ace Edition]
Annie, are you okay?
So, Annie, are you okay? Are you okay, Annie?
Annie, are you okay?
So, Annie, are you okay? Are you okay, Annie?
Annie, are you okay?
So, Annie, are you okay? Are you okay, Annie?
Annie, are you okay?
So, Annie, are you okay? Are you okay, Annie?

[Chorus: Ace Edition]
Annie, are you okay?
Will you tell us that you're okay?
There's a sound at the window
Then he struck you — a crescendo, Annie
He came into your apartment
Left the bloodstains on the carpet
And then you ran into the bedroom
You were struck down
It was your doom
[Post-Chorus: Ace Edition]
Annie, are you okay?
So, Annie, are you okay? Are you okay, Annie?
Annie, are you okay?
So, Annie, are you okay? Are you okay, Annie?
Annie, are you okay?
So, Annie, are you okay? Are you okay, Annie?

[Refrain: DeQuarius Slaton]
You've been hit by—
You've been hit by—
A smooth criminal
Girl!

[Verse 2: Nikko Arnold]
So they came into the outway
It was Sunday, what a black day
Mouth-to-mouth resuscitation
Sounding heartbeats, intimidations

[Pre-Chorus: Ace Edition]
Annie, are you okay?
So, Annie, are you okay? Are you okay, Annie?
Annie, are you okay?
So, Annie, are you okay? Are you okay, Annie?
Annie, are you okay?
Annie, are you okay? Are you okay?
Annie, are you okay?
So, Annie, are you okay? Are you okay, Annie?
Annie, are you okay?
So, Annie, are you okay? Are you okay, Annie?
[Chorus: Ace Edition]
Annie, are you okay?
Will you tell us that you're okay?
There's a sound at the window
Then he struck you — a crescendo, Annie
He came into your apartment
Left the bloodstains on the carpet
And then you ran into the bedroom
You were struck down
It was your doom

[Post-Chorus: Ace Edition]
Annie, are you okay? Annie, are you okay?
Are you okay, Annie?

[Refrain: DeQuarius]
You've been hit by—
You've been struck by—
A smooth criminal

[Interlude]
Choo-cha, choo-cha
Ow!
Okay, I want everybody to clear the area right now!

[Breakdown: Michael Jackson]
Ow!
Hoo!
Hoo!
Hoo!
Hoo!
Ow!
[Outro 1: Ace Edition & (DeQuarius)]
Annie, are you okay? (I don't know)
Will you tell us that you're okay? (I don't know)
There's a sound at the window (I don't know)
Then he struck you, a crescendo, Annie? (I don't know)
He came into your apartment (I don't know)
Left bloodstains on the carpet (I don't know why, baby)
And then you ran into the bedroom (Help me, girl)
You were struck down
It was your doom Annie (Uh, huh, uh huh)
Annie are you okay? (Annie, are you okay)
Will you tell us that you're okay? (you're okay)
There's a sound at the window (Uh-huh, oh yeah)
Then he struck you, a crescendo Annie (Girl, yeah)
He came into your apartment, (He came into your apartment, girl)
Left bloodstains on the carpet (Carpet, girl)
And then you ran into the bedroom (Girl, yeah)
You were struck down (Baby, yeah)
It was your doom Annie (Ow!)

[Outro & Rap: DeQuarius Slaton, Nikko Arnold, Ke'Varis Brooks, Michael Jackson & (DeQuarius)]
I'm a bad guy, smooth like a criminal, (I don't know, you so fine, girl)
They never ever catch me, (catch me)
He came into your apartment, (Apartment)
You've been hit by—
You've been struck by—
A smooth criminal, Ow!
Left bloodstains on the carpet
So, Annie, are you okay? Are you okay, Annie?
Annie, are you okay?, (Girl!)
You've been hit by—
You've been hit by—
A smooth criminal, Ow!
And then you ran into the bedroom
You were struck down
It was your doom Annie, Ow!
You've been hit by—
You've been struck by—
A smooth criminal, Ow!
As he came into the window
Was a sound of a crescendo
He came into her apartment
He left the bloodstains on the carpet
You've been hit by—
You've been hit by—
A smooth criminal, Ow!, (Girl!)
