D
Storm clouds hanging over me
Wrong crowd, but I never leave
             Em
It's what I do (Yeah)

Every time that I'm on my way
There's a fine, or a ticket, or a price to pay
It's true (Ooh)

'Cause karma, she don't like me,
but she's creeping closer
Catch a better vibe, but then it's far from over

'Cause I'm making an enemy
Saving up on my inner peace
Can't play it cool (Yeah)

Chorus:
     D                                          Em
So why, why, why, why, why are you steppin' on me?
(Steppin' on, steppin' on me)
I try, try, try, try, try, and you go for the knees
(Steppin' on, steppin' on me)
Shout it at the people saying,
"Hey world, why you so mean?"
Well, why, why, why, why,
why are you steppin' on me?
(Steppin' on, steppin' on me)

Feels like I'm losing my mind
Too many lemons now for lemonade
Hate that the stars won't align
You know that I put in the time, everyday
And all I'm trying to say is…

Chorus:
So why, why, why, why, why are you steppin' on me?
(Steppin' on, steppin' on me)
I try, try, try, try, try, and you go for the knees
(Steppin' on, steppin' on me)
Shout it at the people saying,
"Hey world, why you so mean?"
Well, why, why, why, why,
why are you steppin' on me?
(Steppin' on, steppin' on me)
(Steppin' on, steppin' on me)
(Steppin' on, steppin' on me)
