Criminal Lyrics by BØRNS

2012

[Verse 1]
She is a hustler, she's no good at all
She is a loser, she's a bum, bum, bum, bum
She lies, she bluffs, she's unreliable
She is a sucker with a gun, gun, gun, gun
I know you told me I should stay away
I know you said she's just a dog astray
She's a bad boy with a tainted heart
And even I know this ain't smart

[Chorus]
But mama, I'm in love with a criminal
And this type of love isn't rational, it's physical
Mama, please don't cry, I will be alright
All reason aside, I just can't deny, love the girl

[Verse 2]
She is a villain by the devil's law
She is a killer just for fun, fun, fun, fun
The chick's a snitch and unpredictable
She's got no conscience, she got none, none, none, none
Oh, I know, should've let go, but no
'Cause she's a bad boy with a tainted heart
And even I know this ain't smart

[Chorus]
But mama, I'm in love with a criminal
And this type of love isn't rational, it's physical
Mama, please don't cry, I will be alright
All reason aside, I just can't deny, love the girl

[Bridge]
And she's got my name
Tattooed on her arm, her lucky charm
So I guess it's okay, she's with me
And I hear people talk (People talk)
Try to make remarks, keep us apart
But I don't even hear, I don't care

[Chorus]
'Cause mama, I'm in love with a criminal
And this type of love isn't rational, it's physical
Mama, please don't cry, I will be alright
All reason aside, I just can't deny, love the girl

[Outro]
(Oh, I know, oh) Mama I'm in love with a criminal
(Should've let go) And this type of love isn't rational
(But no) It's physical
(Oh, I know, oh) Mama, please don't cry, I will be alright
(Should've let go) All reason aside
(But no) I just can't deny, love the girl
