Crime Time lyrics

Song information

Artist: Culture Club
Album: Waking Up With The House On Fire

Lyrics

Death cab for cutie
Sung it like a beauty
Stepped out forgetting
Danger has a duty
Lonely night
He wants to squeeze her tight

They murder for a dollar
No one hears you holler
Wrap up your baby
Then you'll be a scholar

Chorus:
Love stops knocking, your heart starts rocking
It's crime time

Out on the main land
Hit him with a right hand
Stepped on his ego
Now he fells like a man
Do it right
It's a lonely fight

Playing fats waller
Lipstick on your collar
Back in 1950
People had their honour

(Chorus)

They murder for a dollar
No one hears you holler
Wrap up your baby
Then you'll be a scholar
