It's the middle of the day and we both have thrown a fit
The TV is on but neither one of us is watching it
Now your problem is every time my pager go off, I don't pay it no mind And my problem is every time the phone ring
You'll go get it and you'll run and hide
Now if its two people between us that don't exist
And we're both going to go on lying
Ain't nothing good about that in this thing, baby
We both guilty of the John Doe crime

Who was the guy that paged you?
I don't know
Who was the guy that waved at you?
I don't know
Who was the guy that called you?
I don't know
Who was the guy that I saw you with?
I don't know

How did you get some extra money?
I don't know
When I needed some you told me
I don't know
Is this love affair over?
I don't know
Tell me his name
John Doe

Yeah, I know this thing started out all good
But remember when you didn't have a dime I did what I could
Took a chance and put you on my account
Now you flossing some female showing the amount
That's why I trip on **** like your pager
All in my face blowing up and you'll get it later
And the reason I run in the room with the phone all the time
Because of you, I'm guilty of the John Doe crime

Now who was the girl that paged you?
Oh I don't know
Who was the girl that called you?
Oh I don't know
Who was the girl that waved at you?
Oh I don't know
