Grand Slam - Crime Rate lyrics



He was waiting like a black cat
For the woman he loved he told
He would not take it
She was frightened (yes I am)
By the darkness
Then screams that she made went
Then there was silence, silence

Chorus:
The crime rate's going up
The crime rate's going up
The crime rate's going up
The crime rate's going up
The crime rate's going up
The crime rate's going up
The crime rate's going up

He was taken
To the courthouse
And they told him that his life would end
He was shaking
Then they strapped him
In the big chair
He was crying for the woman he love
Lord, he killed her
That was the sentence

Chorus

(Guitar solo)

Chorus

So if you go and your heart gets hard
Told the girl he loved her so
He told the girl but she didn't wanna know
He told the girl he'd kill her, ooh

Chorus

Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh

The crime rate's going up
The crime rate's going up
The crime rate's going up
The crime rate's going up
And something has to be done
