Devo ( /ˈdiːvoʊ/, originally /diːˈvoʊ/) is an American punk rock/New Wave band formed in 1972 consisting of members from Kent and Akron, Ohio.

Got a surprise from my honey
Got a message from my girl
When she picked up her pen from beside her bed
And wrote me a scribbled note
Said she'd be comin' back to see me
She would be visiting real soon
Gonna get up from her lone white bed
And leave this cold white room

wah-oooo-oo-oo-oo-oooo-ooooh
wah-oooo-oo-oo-oo-oooo-ooooh
wah-oooo-oo-oo-oo-oooo-ooh

We would once more live together
Go out on a lovin' spree
Just like before the accident
My baby would look at me
I saw her sweet face tremblin'
As she tried to open her eyes
I jumped with the joy of a grateful little boy
The day my baby gave me a surprise

wah-oooo-oo-oo-oo-oooo-ooooh
wah-oooo-oo-oo-oo-oooo-ooooh
wah-oooo-oo-oo-oo-oooo-ooh

Got a surprise from my honey
Got a message from my girl
When she picked up her pen from beside her bed
And wrote me a scribbled note
I saw her sweet face tremblin'
As she tried to open her eyes
I jumped with the joy of a grateful little boy
The day my baby gave me a surprise

wah-oooo-oo-oo-oo-oooo-ooooh
wah-oooo-oo-oo-oo-oooo-ooooh
wah-oooo-oo-oo-oo-oooo-ooh
