Put the Law on You Songtext

Put the Law on You Songtext
Do I have to put the law on you baby
For all the wicked things you do?
If I gonna have to put the law on you baby
That was not what I wanted to do
Do I have to put the law on you baby
Try to make you come out clean?
For every evil deed
You′re just about the lowest
And the dirtiest thing, ever seen
Did you really think, you could pull it off
The perfect crime, crime of the heart?
And do you really think that you'll get away
Do the crime and then, never pay?
Do I have to put the law on you baby?
Lock you up and throw away the key?
For the countless counts of low down double-cross
You′ve been about
Have you no
No decency?
Do you really think that you could pull it off
The perfect crime, crime of the heart?
Did you really think that you'll get away
Escape my justice until
Your dying day?
Huh
Though you made it clear from the very start
There's no trusting you in my foolish heart
Though you maybe made it clear
That didn′t make it right
Though then fine downside of it
Do you really, really think you′ll get away?
You can't escape my justice down
My dying day
To your dying day
Your dying day
Hmm hmmm hmm
Hmm hmmm hmmm
For all the wicked things you do?
If I gonna have to put the law on you baby
That was not what I wanted to do
Do I have to put the law on you baby
Try to make you come out clean?
For every evil deed
You′re just about the lowest
And the dirtiest thing, ever seen
Did you really think, you could pull it off
The perfect crime, crime of the heart?
And do you really think that you'll get away
Do the crime and then, never pay?
Do I have to put the law on you baby?
Lock you up and throw away the key?
For the countless counts of low down double-cross
You′ve been about
Have you no
No decency?
Do you really think that you could pull it off
The perfect crime, crime of the heart?
Did you really think that you'll get away
Escape my justice until
Your dying day?
Huh
Though you made it clear from the very start
There's no trusting you in my foolish heart
Though you maybe made it clear
That didn′t make it right
Though then fine downside of it
Do you really, really think you′ll get away?
You can't escape my justice down
My dying day
To your dying day
Your dying day
Hmm hmmm hmm
Hmm hmmm hmmm
