"Crime Time" 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
Love stops knocking
Your heart stops rocking
It's crime time
Out on the mainland
Hit him with a right hand
Stepped on his ego
Now he feels 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
Love stops knocking
Your heart stops rocking
It's crime time
They murder for a dollar
No-one hears you holler
Wrap up your baby
Then you'll be a scholar
