Em
Warning sign, warning sign,
C  D          C D
I see it but I pay it no mind.
Hear my voice, hear my voice
It's saying something and it's not very nice
Pay attention, pay attention
I'm talking to you and I hope you're concentrating
I've got money now, I've got money now
Come on, baby, come on, baby

A#                           C D C D
Warning sign of things to come
A#                                     C D C D
It happened before, it will happen again

Chorus:
D
Hear my voice, move my hair
I move it around a lot, but I don't care what I
   C                      B                Am    G
Remember, baby, what I remember, what I remember
(what is it?)
          C                B                Am   G
What I remember, what I remember, what I remember
(what is it?)

Warning sign, warning sign
Look at my hair, I like the design
It's the truth, it's the truth
Your glassy eyes and your open mouth
Take it easy baby, take it easy
It's a natural thing and you have to relax
I've got money now, I've got money now
Come on, baby, come on, baby

Chorus:
Warning sign, of things to come
(turn me over, turn me over)
Love is here but I guess it's gone now
(hurry up babe, hurry up)
Hear my voice, move my hair
I move it around a lot, but
I don't care what I remember
Remember, what I remember, what I remember
(What is it?)
What I remember, what I remember,
what I remember (What is it?)

What I remember, what I remember, what I remember
Remember, what I remember, what I remember
Remember, what I remember, what I remember
Remember, what I remember, what I remember
