Strange voice on the telephone
Telling me I~d better leave you alone
Why don~t somebody say what~s going on?
Uh oh, I think I~ve been through this before
A
Looks like I~ve been fooled again
G
Looks like I~ve been fooled again
(intro & verse chords)
I don~t like it
I don~t like it
You never said you had known, known me too
I need to know about it, if you do
If two is one, I might as well be three
It~s good to see you think so much of me
A
Looks like I~ve been fooled again
G
Looks like I~ve been fooled again

I don~t like it
I don~t like it
