"Scene Of The Crime" From: The American Music EP (You Grab Your Jacket)
Let's let the investigation start.
Let all the interrogation tear us apart.
Let's see you explain your fingerprints in the chalk
And your meeting in the dark.
And let's unveil your greatest alibi.
As I watch you return to the scene of the crime.
Let's ask all your witnesses
That will swear that you were somewhere else that night.
And I will lie awake and mine eyes won't rest,
I'll seek out the clues, may my efforts be blessed.
I'll follow the trails till I find all the proof that I need
To relieve this ache from my chest.
And the enemies I've gained will plot their revenge,
They'll plan out a path with a price on my head.
As you point your pretty finger at my evidence to blow me away.
And know, I never wanted this
We both deserve "the flames"
And if they dusted deep enough,
they'd find every last one of our names.
But remember it's just me.
As you flee the scene of the crime.
And the officers will smile as your gypsy eyes persuade the trial.
As the prosecution rests just because it began to cramp your style.
And the jury, found hung in the room.
Heavy with the trail of your perfume
And a wink in your eye that says
"Boy, I will be coming for you soon..."
And your heart will lie to you...
As you flee the scene of the crime..
