Cover art for Blame It On Me lyrics by Barenaked Ladies

Here we are again, and we're looking at each other As if each other were to blame You think you're so smart, but I've seen you naked And I'll probably see you naked again Milli Vanilli told you to blame it on on the rain, But if you blame it on the rain, tell me what can be gained so If all else fails, you can blame it on me.

Chorus If all else fails, you can blame it on me. If all else fails, you can blame it on me. If all else fails, blame it on me. And if all else fails, you can blame it on me.

Then you smile again, but you're looking at me Like there's something I'm supposed to say Forgive me Father, but I've fallen in love And that's all I have for confession today Maybe if you asked me on any other given day I wouldn't have time for you or anything that you say, But it's all right now, you can blame it on me.

Chorus

Yes, dear, I love you, But sometimes I think that love's not enough for you So you want to play mind games Well that's fine, go ahead; la la la, I can't hear you

Well here you are and you're a hundred thousand miles away They say that absence makes the heart grow fungus I wax poetic 'cause you're waxing your legs And you say you think there's a traitor among us If all else fails, you can blame it on me.

Chorus
