It's Not the Crime |
| I broke the law last night |
| Committed a criminal and sexual act |
| She was on top in this state |
| I said I went to get bopped |
| And though I didn’t get caught |
| I know in my mind I committed no crime |
| Still by some fluke I’m here serving time |
| Oh no |
| It’s not the crime |
| And it’s not the thought |
| It’s not the deed |
| It’s if you get caught |
| I got some friends who like to stay high |
| Think of, the tax potential, if it was legal to buy |
| But instead the kid is forced to bust on victimless crimes |
| It’s the look last bust, nickel and dime, oh oh |
| It’s not the crime |
| And it’s not the thought |
| It’s not the deed |
| It’s if you get caught |
| Think of all them profiteers |
| And how they got that way |
| Cause they sure the hell would not be there |
| Without the payoff game that’s played |
| Think of what we could do |
| If it was you that was in their shoes |
| You either play the game or else you lose |
| Bad news |
| It’s not who’s sold |
| It’s not who’s bought |
| And it’s not the kickbacks |
| It’s if you get caught |
| It’s not the crime |
| It’s not the thought |
| And it’s not the deed |
| It’s if you get caught |
