Smooth Criminal Lyrics:
As he came into the window
It was the 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
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?
Annie, are you okay?
Will you tell us that you’re okay?
There’s a sign in the window
That he struck you – a crescendo, Annie
He came into your apartment
He left the bloodstains on the carpet
Then you ran into the bedroom
You were struck down
It was your doom
Annie, are you okay?
So, Annie, are you okay?
Are you okay, Annie?
You’ve been hit by
You’ve been hit by a smooth criminal
Ow!
Ow!
Aw!
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)
You were struck down
It was your doom Annie (dag gone it)
Annie, are you okay?
So, Annie, are you okay?
Are you okay, Annie?
You’ve been hit by
You’ve been hit by a smooth criminal
