  • (Uh oh)
    I see you hide behind your glasses
    See you love the shade
    Shady so long that Mister Shady is your name
    Shipping it off, contain it, seal it, rip up the receipt
    But somehow it always finds its way right back to me

    Thinking that nobody, nobody, nobody knows
    But I got your number, I got your codes
    This ain't the first time at the rodeo, hello
    You're sliding, you slide on a slippery slope
    Karma police, I'm on patrol
    Got my gun loaded, I'm ready to go, I'm dope

    You see this finger wagging, wagging at you
    The naughty, naughty things you do
    You did it, you did it, and then you hid it, hid it
    You see this finger wagging, wagging at you
    The naughty, naughty things you do
    You did it, you did it, and then you hid it, admit it

    You've been naughty, uh, huh, uh
    You've been naughty, uh, huh, uh
    You've been naughty, uh, huh, uh
    You've been naughty, uh, huh, uh

    I think there's something that you might perhaps forgot to say
    Locked in the closet but it never goes away
    No matter how hard you try, you're never washing out the stain
    Because you're addicted, so addicted to the shame

    Thinking that nobody, nobody, nobody knows
    But I got your number, I got your codes
    This ain't the first time at the rodeo, hello
    You're sliding, you slide on a slippery slope
    Karma police, I'm on patrol
    Got my gun loaded, I'm ready to go, I'm dope

    You see this finger wagging, wagging at you
    The naughty, naughty things you do
    You did it, you did it, and then you hid it, hid it
    You see this finger wagging, wagging at you
    The naughty, naughty things you do
    You did it, you did it, and then you hid it, admit it

    You've been naughty, uh, huh, uh
    You've been naughty, uh, huh, uh
    You've been naughty, uh, huh, uh
    You've been naughty, uh, huh, uh

    You try to sneak it, hide it and seek it
    Put it in the past, try to antique it
    Dirty secrets, you tried to clean it
    Put one over fast but you can't bleach it

    You see this finger wagging, wagging at you
    The naughty, naughty things you do
    You did it, you did it, and then you hid it, hid it
    You see this finger wagging, wagging at you
    The naughty, naughty things you do
    You did it, you did it, and then you hid it, admit it

    You've been naughty, uh, huh, uh
    You've been naughty, uh, huh, uh
    You've been naughty, uh, huh, uh
    You've been naughty, uh, huh, uh
    You've been naughty, uh, huh, uh
    You've been naughty, uh, huh, uh
    You've been naughty, uh, huh, uh
    You've been naughty, uh, huh, uh
