[Verse 1]
I just got outta jail today
So I thought I'd go down to Bash St. way
Selling nicked gear, on a market stall
Flogging my ears to one and all
[Chorus]
Life of Crime
Life of Crime
I really love this life of Crime
Life of Crime
Life of Crime
I must be hooked on this life of Crime
[Verse 2]
At night I go on a shopping spree
Down the west end, with my skeleton key
Watches, diamonds, gold and j**els
I think to myself what bloody fools
[Chorus 2]
Life of Crime
Life of Crime
I really love this life of Crime
[Verse 3]
I pick a street, then choose a house
Climb up the drainpipe, quieter than a mouse
In through the window, then out through the door
And then off down the steet, laughing once more
[Chorus 2]
Life of Crime
Life of Crime
I really love this life of Crime
[Verse 4]
But I think to myself as my heart then beats
What's that noise in a far off street?
Don't sound too friendly, so off I go
Run down the tube station, 'bout half a mo
Size 12 feet fill the midnite air
As the boys in Blue come from everywhere
A hand feels my collar, as the cuffs go on
And you know what happens from there in on
[Chorus 2]
Life of Crime
Life of Crime
I really love this life of Crime
Life of Crime
Life of Crime
Life of Crime
(So It's back to prison to do my)
Life of Crime (time, time, time)
Do my time (time, time, time)
Life of Crime (time, time, time)
Ha ha ha ha
