Smooth Criminal

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 ok?
So, Annie are you ok
Are you ok, Annie?
Annie, are you ok?
So, Annie are you ok
Are you ok, Annie?
Annie, are you ok?
So, Annie are you ok?
Are you ok, Annie? Annie, are you ok?
So, Annie are you ok, are you ok Annie?
Annie are you ok?
Will you tell us that you're ok?
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 ok?
So, Annie are you ok?
Are you ok, Annie?
Annie, are you ok?
So, Annie are you ok?
Are you ok, Annie?
Annie, are you ok?
Are you ok, Annie?
You've been hit by
You've been struck by a smooth criminal
I don't know!
Annie are you ok?
Will you tell us that you're ok?
I don't know!
There's a sign in the window
(I don't know!)
That he struck you - a crescendo Annie
(I don't know!)
He came into your apartment
(I don't know!)
Left the bloodstains on the carpet
(I don't know why baby!)
The you ran into the bedroom
(I don't know)
You were struck down
It was your doom - Annie!
Annie are you ok?
(Dad gone it - baby!)
Will you tell us that you're ok?
(Dad gone it - baby!)
There's a sign in the window
(Dad gone it - baby!)
That he struck you - a crescendo Annie
(Hoo! Hoo!)
He came into your apartment
(Dad gone it!)
Left the bloodstains on the carpet
(Hoo! Hoo!)
The you ran into the bedroom
Dad gone it!
You were struck down
It was your doom - Annie!
You've been hit by
You've been struck by a smooth criminal
