[Verse: 1]

Bad mouth crosswords need a muzzle

I'm down, you're across

I can't seem to solve this puzzle

I turn while you toss

[Chorus:]

Crosswords puzzle me, it's frightening

We're still friends but we're still fighting

[Verse: 2]

Cat and dog, we trade black looks

C'mon and do your worst

The war of words demands surrender

I won't be the first

[Chorus:]

Crosswords puzzle me, it's frightening

We're still friends but we're still fighting

Crosswords puzzle me, it's frightening

We're still friends but we're still fighting

[Guitar Solo 1]

[Verse: 3]

Get an earful, leave you tearful

Careful who you cross

We get close when we get angry

Crossword's still the boss

[Chorus:]

Crosswords puzzle me, it's frightening

We're still friends but we're still fighting

Crosswords puzzle me, it's frightening

We're still friends but we're still fighting

[Guitar Solo 2]

[Outro:]

Crosswords, crosswords

Smart words, smart words, won't tease me

Crosswords, tax man

No we can't agree, love that third degree

Crosswords, crosswords, passwords, smart words

No we can't agree, love that third degree
