I tell you I didn't do it 'cause I wasn't there
Don't blame me, it just isn't fair
You listened to their side, now listen to mine
Can't think of a story, sure you'll find me some time

 Now pass the blame and don't blame me
Just close your eyes and count to three (one two three)
Then I'll be gone and you'll forget
The broken window, TV set

 It wasn't me either, I'm just his mate
He told me to stand here and watch the gate
I've got a wife and three kids, you know
They'll tell you I'm straight, at least I think so
I'm as honest as the day is long
The longer the daylight, the less I do wrong

 Now pass the blame and don't blame me
Just close your eyes and count to three (one two three)
Then I'll be gone and you'll forget
The broken window, TV set

 Pass the blame and don't blame me
Just close your eyes and count to three (one two three)
Then I'll be gone and I'll forget
That what you give is what you get

 Pass the blame and don't blame me
Just close your eyes and count to three (one two three)
Then I'll be gone and you'll forget
The broken window, TV set
