Love Police

LYRICS
(Leli/Zimmerman)(ASCAP)

You committed a crime,
Now you must do the time!
You committed a crime,
Now you must do the time!
You committed a crime,
Now you must do the time!
You committed a crime,
Now you must do the time!

You battered, my unsuspecting heart
You cut and severed, my soul apart
You walked away, you left the scene
you left no trace, gone with the wind
In the darkness you stole what was mine
You were so unkind, I was so blind
You gave me your heart and said it was mine
And with it you ran, and left the rest of me behind.

I knew exactly what to do
I knew who to call to look for you
I called that Love Police
And now their after you
I told them about your crime
I told them you were mine
They knew exactly what to do
The Love Police are after you

Threw it all away, the good times that we had
Why did you do it, was it that bad
You played hit and run, with my affections
Violated my trust, victimized my emotion
Crime does not pay, no not today
You'll do the time, you won't get away
You broke the most sacred law of all
You broke my heart, body and soul

I knew exactly what to do
I knew who to call to look for you
I called that Love Police
And now their after you
I told them about your crime
I told them you were mine
They knew exactly what to do
The Love Police are after you.
