Crime Pays

I know you know all the pros and cons They help you get to everything you want Greasing policemen bending all the rules Make them an offer that they can`t refuse One crime baby I can`t forgive The kind that hurts where I live I`m a nice guy I try to wait and see If you`ll get caught or go free You stole my heart and left me blue It look like crime pays for you You do it and you get away It seem like crime pays Crime pays Beat the heat but you couldn`t pay me off You`re staying cool no matter what it costs You get caught you`ll never do the time I have to say you`ve got a way with one crime baby I can`t forgive The kind that hurts where I live It`s all too clear but I still don`t see Why all the guilty go free You stole my heart and left me blue It look like crime pays for you You do it and you get away It seems like crime pays Crime pays It seems like crime pays Crime pays Catch a thief and let her go You won`t get back the love she stole Shake her down but she don`t mind `Cause she commit the perfect crime OK, OK You know I know you`re a pro and con artiste Oh baby you`re a false alarm Why do I try to play it by the rules I was the victim but I`m not a fool You stole my heart and left me blue It looks like crime pays for you You do it and you get away It seems like crime pays --- Crime Pays - Daryl Hall & John Oates, Daryl Hall and John Oates
