[Verse 1]

Two years, to the day

Straight up, an instant connection

You broke, her heart for me

And I let you


[Pre-Chorus 1]

History, is telling me

I'm gonna be walking in her shoes

You let, her down for me

Now it's my turn


[Chorus]

Should'a known

I could'a told you were lying (hey!)

Fool me once, fool me twice

Oh, stupid me

Didn't want to doubt

Didn't want to find out (hey!)

But now I know

'Cause you came home with

Guilty flowers

Guilty flowers


[Verse 2]

Two years, to the day

Roses to show your affection

Now thoughts are digging in

And it's my fault


[Pre-Chorus 2]

Who was I, thinking that

I could be, somebody different?

There were signs, in your eyes

Wonder why, I kept mine closed?

Another notch on your bedpost


[Chorus]

Should'a known

I could'a told you were lying (hey!)

Fool me once, fool me twice

Oh, stupid me

Didn't want to doubt

Didn't want to find out (hey!)

But now I know

'Cause you came home with

Guilty flowers, guilty flowers

Guilty flowers, guilty flowers


[Post-Chorus]

Oh-ah-oh, oh-ah-oh (hey!)

Guilty flowers

Oh-ah-oh, oh-ah-oh (hey!)

Guilty flowers


[Bridge]

Who was I, thinking that

I could be, somebody different?


[Chorus]

I should'a known

I could'a told you were lying (I should'a known!)

Fool me once, fool me twice

Oh, stupid me (hey-ey-ey!)

Didn't want to doubt

Didn't want to find out (hey!)

But now I know (oh!)

'Cause you came home with...


[Outro]

Should'a known

I could'a told you were lying (hey-eyyy-eyyy)

Fool me once, fool me twice

Oh, stupid me

Didn't want to doubt

Didn't want to find out (hey-ohhh!)

But now I know

'Cause you came home with

Guilty (oh-ohh-ohhhh) flowers

Guilty flowers

Guilty flowers (oh-oh-ohh)

Guilty flowers
