[Verse 1]
Walk in early
Coffee cold
Tool bag heavy
Same old road
Boss man barking
Didn’t even stall
“Something’s broken
Yeah
It’s all your fault” (oh great)
[Chorus]
“You’re the fault
You’re the fault”
Even when I wasn’t there at all
I fix the mess
I take the fall
They point at me
Yeah
Every call
“You’re the fault
You’re the fault”
I’m the name they scribble on the wall
I do my job
Then fix them all
But somehow
I’m still the fault
[Verse 2]
I lay it level
Cables clean
Every bracket
Every seam
They skip the training
Skip the plan
Then call me over
With a wrench in their hand (hey, can you fix this?)
[Chorus]
“You’re the fault
You’re the fault”
Even when I wasn’t there at all
I fix the mess
I take the fall
They point at me
Yeah
Every call
“You’re the fault
You’re the fault”
I’m the name they scribble on the wall
I do my job
Then fix them all
But somehow
I’m still the fault
[Bridge]
If blame was money
I’d retire
Golden ladder
Brand-new tires
‘Cause every time
Something goes sideways
Guess who’s famous
In the worst way (it’s me)
[Chorus]
“You’re the fault
You’re the fault”
Even when I wasn’t there at all
I fix the mess
I take the fall
They point at me
Yeah
Every call
“You’re the fault
You’re the fault”
I’m the name they scribble on the wall
I do my job
Then fix them all
Sing it loud
I’m still the fault (oh yeah)
