Criminals Songtext / Lyric


T Bone Burnett - Criminals Songtext


I've seen a lot of criminals

I've seen a lot of crime

Doing a lot of evil deeds

Doing a lot of time



We speak of these men as aliens

From some forbidden race

We speak of these men as animals

We will lock in a cage



But there's one man I must arrest

I must interrogate

One man that I must make confess

Then rehabilitate






There is no other I can blame

No other I can judge

No other I can cast in shame

Then require blood



I see him in the shadows down the hall

I see him in the plaster on the wall



There is no crime he cannot commit

No murder too complex

His heart is filled with larceny

And violence and sex



His heart is filled with envy

And revenge and greed

His heart is filled with nothing

His heart is filled with need



He's capable of anything

Of any vicious act

This criminal is dangerous

The criminal under my own hat
