Stay Away (Bonus Track) Lyrics

Monkey see, monkey do - I don't know why
I'd rather be dead than be uncool - I don't know why
Every line had the rhythms - I don't know why
Let's move, love is blind - I don't know why

Stay, stay away
Stay away, stay away

Give it up, take a smile - I don't know why
Fashion shirt, fashion style - I don't know why
Throw it out, keep it in - I don't know why
Have to have poison skin - I don't know why

Stay, stay away
Stay away, stay away

Give an inch, take a smile - I don't know why
Fashion shirt, fashion style - I don't know why

Stay, stay away
Stay away, stay away
Stay away, yeaaah!
Stay away, ooooooh, aaah

Aaaah, ooh stay away baby

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
