I know you know all
the pros and cons
They help you get
to everything you want
Greasing policemen
bending all the rules
Make them an offer
that they can't refuse
One crime baby
I can't forgive
The kind that hurts
where I live
I'm a nice guy I try
to wait and see
If you'll get caught
or go free
You stole my heart
and left me blue
It look like crime
pays for you
You do it and you get away
It seem like crime pays
Crime pays
Beat the heat but you
couldn't pay me off
You're staying cool
no matter what it costs
You get caught you'll never
do the time
I have to say you've got
a way with one crime baby
I can't forgive
The kind that hurts
where I live
It's all too clear but
I still don't see
Why all the guilty go free
You stole my heart
and left me blue
It look like crime
pays for you
You do it and you get away
It seems like crime pays
Crime pays
It seems like crime pays
Crime pays
Catch a thief
and let her go
You won't get back the
love she stole
Shake her down but
she don't mind
'Cause she commit the
perfect crime OK, OK
You know I know you're
a pro and con artiste
Oh baby you're
a false alarm
Why do I try to play
it by the rules
I was the victim but
I'm not a fool
You stole my heart
and left me blue
It looks like crime
pays for you
You do it and you get away
It seems like crime pays
