Criminal Songtext
von The Vibrators

My heart′s being driven
By the blue flashing lights
The police radio and the TV news
Tell me I've gotta split into the night
And with the petty crime, the trigger artist
No, I don′t pick up no fence
Leaving men dead and dying
In bullet trains and security vans
'Cause I'm a criminal, criminal
I know what I want and I want it all
I′m a criminal, criminal
I take it from the rich or I take it from the poor
I′m a jaguar
Yeah, down that freedom road
A lawless man I may be
But I've gotta live a little before I get old
Saturday night special
Tucked underneath my arm
Bank, supermarkets and gas stations
Hold for me a special charm


′Cause I'm a criminal, criminal
I cheat and lie and steal and kill
And I′m a criminal, criminal
Come along girl, you know that I'm for real
I see the pictures of my children
And my other son next to the dame
You know I can never see them
The price I pay for what I am
I don′t wanna ever be taken
Don't wanna do years or even days
I wanna remain free
To be a criminal for always
'Cause I′m a criminal, criminal
You out there, don′t you forget it
I'm a criminal, criminal
′Cause you know I'm coming to get it
I′m a criminal, criminal
I know what I want and I want it all
I'm a criminal, criminal
Get in my way and I′ll shoot you against the wall
I'm a criminal, criminal
You know I gotta change my tail
I'm a criminal, criminal
Hey darling, get me another gun
I′m a criminal, criminal
Hey, is that the police?
I′m a criminal, criminal
Goodbye darling, I gotta run
