Crime Story Lyrics by Walkabouts, The

Crime Story Lyrics


    Thunder laughs and thunderclaps
    The afternoons round here,
    Well they're just like that

    I know ya' don't spook easy
    I know ya' won't up and quit
    Let's keep it like that
    Now don't forget

    When you go and make the drop
    If he don't look ya' in the eye
    Well ya' better just walk

    Means madness is takin' over
    Madness is in charge
    It's come out of the woodwork
    Madness-at-large

    Keep things close
    Keep the dogs at bay
    Just walk on by
    Story of a crime
    Walk on by
    Story of a crime

    Whole thing sounds harder than it is
    Timing's everything
    But then you knew that, before i did

    If this turns into a circus
    Too much talkin', too much noise
    Walk on by
    Keep holdin' on to the bag

    There's a town on the spanish border
    Where you can chill
    He's supposed to tell ya' about it
    But if he don't, head for the hills

    Find some empty olive grove
    Where you can stash the car
    Somewhere exotic
    Somewhere obscure

    Sometimes you do what is wrong
    So ya' won't do what's worse
    If ya' can't be righteous
    At least be careful
    Just cause we feed the flame
    Don't mean we have to got burned
