Shakey Graves - Cops And Robbers Lyrics
[Verse 1]I might be the worstBut you'd know the bestYou drive the carI'll do the restThe getaway was quick and cleanWe make an awful perfect teamYou never know how fast you runUntil the bullet leaves the gunEverybody on the floor, this is a stickup!Why would you sink so low just to get high?[Chorus]Oh, crime!It's a young man's gameI want to take you where I'm going'Cause half the fun is never knowingIf and why we've lost our wayTo find that everything in lifeIs worth its priceBut there's nothing you can't steal[Verse 2]I couldn't stopI couldn't sayMy innocence was locked awayIt's far too late 'cause now you've seenAll the wicked parts of meThe bully got the girl next doorI had it all and wanted moreSo give me everything in the register!Why would you sink so low just to get high?[Chorus]Oh, crime!It's a young man's gameI want to take you where I'm going'Cause half the fun is never knowingIf and why we've lost our wayTo find that everything in lifeIs worth its priceBut there's nothing you can't steal[Bridge]Young man, what did you do?I saw your face on the 6 o'clock newsYou had to get your fifteen minutes somehowJudge not lest ye be judgedFear not unbearable loveOh, what a life[Chorus]Oh, crime!It's a young man's gameI want to take you where I'm going'Cause half the fun is never knowingIf and why we've lost our wayTo find that everything in lifeIs worth it's priceBut there's nothing you can't stealNothing you can't stealNothing you can't steal
