[Verse 1: Adam Levine]
I didn't hear what you were sayin'
I live on raw emotion, baby
I answer questions, never maybe
And I'm not kind if you betray me
So who the hell are you to say we
Never would have made it, babe

[Pre-Chorus: Adam Levine]
If you needed love, well, then ask for love
Could have given love, now I’m taking love
And it’s not my fault 'cause you both deserve
What's coming now, so don’t say a word

[Chorus: Adam Levine]
Wake up call
Caught you in the morning with another one in my bed
Don't you care about me anymore?
Don’t you care about me? I don't think so
Six foot tall
Came without a warning so I had to shoot him dead
He won't come around here anymore
Come around here? I don't think so

[Verse 2: Mary J. Blige]
Would have bled to make you happy
You didn't need to treat me that way
And now you beat me at my own game
And now I find you sleeping soundly
And your lovers screaming loudly
Hear a sound and hit the ground

[Pre-Chorus: Adam Levine & (Mary J. Blige)]
If you needed love (Needed love), well, then ask for love (Ask for love)
Could have given love (Given love), now I’m taking love (Taking love)
And it’s not my fault (Not my fault) 'cause you both deserve (Both deserve)
What's coming now (Coming now) so don’t say a word

[Chorus: Adam Levine & Mary J. Blige]
Wake up call
Caught you in the morning with another one in my bed
Don't you care about me anymore?
Don’t you care about me? I don't think so
Six foot tall
Came without a warning so I had to shoot him dead
He won't come around here anymore
Come around here? I don't feel so bad
I don't feel so bad
I don't feel so bad

[Bridge: Adam Levine & (Mary J. Blige)]
I'm so sorry, darling (Ooh-ooh)
Did I do the wrong thing? (Do the wrong thing)
Oh, what was I thinking?
Is his heart still beating?

[Chorus: Adam Levine & Mary J. Blige, (Mary J. Blige)]
Wake up call
Caught you in the morning with another one in my bed
Don't you care about me anymore? (Don't you care)
Don’t you care about me? I don't think so
Six foot tall (Six foot tall)
Came without a warning so I had to shoot him dead
(Shoot him dead)
He won't come around here anymore (Come around here)
Come around here? I don't feel so bad
Wake up call
Caught you in the morning with another one in my bed
Don't you care about me anymore? (Don't you care?)
Don’t you care about me? I don't think so
Six foot tall
Came without a warning so I had to shoot him dead
He won't come around here anymore
No, he won't come around here, I don't feel so bad

[Outro: Adam Levine & Mary J. Blige]
Wake up call
Caught you in the morning with another one in my bed
Don't you care about me anymore?
Don’t you care about me? I don't think so
Wake up call
Caught you in the morning with another one in my bed
Don't you care about me anymore?
(Don't you care, don't you care?)
Don’t you care about me? I don't think so

Maroon 5 is an American pop rock band. They were originally formed in 1994 as Kara’s Flowers while they were still attending high school. They signed to Reprise Records and released an album, The Fourth World, in 1997. After a mediocre response to the album, the band parted with their record label and attended college, but in 2001, the band regrouped, added James Valentine to the lineup, and pursued a new direction under the name Maroon 5.

Their first big hit came in the form of “Harder to Breathe,” the edgier lead single from their debut, Songs About Jane. The continued success of that song and other singles “This Love,” “She Will Be Loved,” and “Sunday Morning” cemented the quintet as a pop-rock band to keep an eye out for.

However, for their second album, It Won’t Be Soon Before Long, they switched to ambing up on slick pop production—and it worked for them. Lead single “Makes Me Wonder” jumped 63 places in one week to reach number one, becoming their first ever #1 single.
