Paragraph Lyric
Do I have to put the law on you baby
For all the wicked things you do?
Am 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
To try and make you come out clean for every evil deed?
You're just about the lowest
And the dirtiest thing I've ever seen

Did you really think you could pull it off
The perfect crime, crime of the heart?
Do you really think that you'll get away
Do the crime and never ever pay?

Do I have to put the law out 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 decency?

Did 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 you're dying day?
Do I have to put the law on you baby   For all the wicked things you do?   Am 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   To try and make you come out clean for every evil deed?   You're just about the lowest   And the dirtiest thing I've ever seen      Did you really think you could pull it off   The perfect crime, crime of the heart?   Do you really think that you'll get away   Do the crime and never ever pay?      Do I have to put the law out 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 decency?      Did 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 you're dying day?
