Karmin were Amy Heidemann (Vocals/Guitar) and Nick Noonan (Vocals/Cajon) from Boston, Massachusetts. The Brokenhearted Songfacts reports that their name derives from the Latin word 'carmen,' meaning "song," with a slightly altered spelling to "hint at karma."
The pair first gained recognition from their covers of popular Hip-Hop and Pop songs posted on YouTube. After offers from various record companies, the duo signed with Sony and Epic Records in June 2011.

Verse 1:
EDbm This is more than a typical kinda thing
A Felt the joints in my bones where you were touching me, oh oh
BE Didn't want to take it slow
EDbm In the days, going crazed, I can barely think
A You're replaying in my brain, find it hard to sleep, oh oh
BE Waiting for my phone to blow
E Now I'm here in a sticky situation
E Got a little trouble, yep and now i'm pacin'
Dbm Five minutes, ten minutes, now it's been an hour
Dbm Don't wanna think too hard, but i'm sour
ABE Oh oh, I can't seem to let you go
Chorus:
E See i've been waiting all day
Dbm For you to call me baby
A So let's get up, let's get on it
BE Don't you leave me broken hearted tonight
E Come on, that's right
E Honest baby i'll do
Dbm Anything you want to
A So can we finish what we started
BE Don't you leave me broken hearted tonight
Come on, that's right
Uh cheerio
Verse 2: - same as Verse 1 -
What's the time, such a crime
Not a single word, sipping on a patron
Just to calm my nerves, oh oh
Poppin' bottles by the phone
Oh yeah
Act me up, pat me down, turn me inside out
That's enough, hold me up
Maybe i'm in doubt, oh oh
Now don't even think you know, no no
-Chorus-
Verse 3:
Anything you wanna do, i'll be on it too
Everything you say, it's like a gold with a view
Business on the front, party in the back
Maybe I was wrong, was the outfit really wack
This kinda thing doesn't happen usually
I'm on the opposite side of it, truthfully
I know you want it so come and get it
Uh cheerio
-Chorus-
Outro:
E When you gonna call
E Don't leave me broken hearted
Dbm I've been waiting up
A Let's finish what we started, oh oh
BE I can't seem to let you go
Come on, that's right
