The Lyrics

Based on a true story. College dorm life can be crazy. I didn't destroy the sign, though- I wonder who did...
[Perpetrator:]
I was bored playing on my devices
Me and friends wanted to do stuff that excites

And the floor was empty that night
On the level that we love
We focused in on a sign
Reading “EXIT” up above

So then I smashed the sign
One of many on the right side of the hall
And cause I smashed the sign
Now it’s dangling by a lone electric cord

How am I gonna tell the R.A. all about this?
How am I gonna tell the R.A. all about this?

[R.A.:]
Never saw anything so random just like this
Don’t know who here to blame, they’re here among us

And the hall was filling with those
Getting pictures of the sign
Great laughter spread through the crowd
As they posted it online

Well, someone smashed the sign
Time to grab my walkie-talkie, call it in
And cause they smashed the sign
Imma have to dump it in the garbage bin

How am I gonna tell the housing staff about this?
How am I gonna tell the housing staff about this?

[Perpetrator]
Oh, it’s still hanging there
Just swing it ‘round, I dare
Oh, it’s still hanging there
The wires might soon tear

Oh, the floor was empty that night
On the level that we love
We focused in on a sign
Reading “EXIT” up above

So then I smashed the sign
One of many on the right side of the hall
And cause I smashed the sign
Now it’s dangling by a lone electric cord

How am I gonna tell the R.A. all about this?
How am I gonna tell the R.A. all about this?
