Life of Crime Lyrics by ​cub

Come Out Come Out

1995

[Verse 1]
Saw you through a bullet hole
Saw you through a bullet hole
I fell in love with the color of your blood
How was I to know it would be too late?
[Verse 2]
Saw you through the ceiling
Saw you through the ceiling
I fell in love with the way I was feeling
Yeah you make me feel so good
[Chorus]
So hang on, Sloopy
Though my dad says no
And you crashed your motorcycle
When I said I wouldn't go
With you to the drive in
Now I'm a widow at the age of seventeen
The age of seventeen
[Bridge]
True love don't last forever
And if anybody says so well you know that he's a liar
A liar, a liar. a liar. a liar
Yeah it's nothing but a life of crime
[Verse 3]
Saw you through the mirror
Saw you through the mirror
When you hate yourself
Everything is clearer
Nothing changes and it never will
[Chorus]
So hang on Sloopy
Though my dad says no
And you crashed your motorcycle
When I said I wouldn't go
With you to the drive in
Now I'm a widow at the age of seventeen
The age of seventeen
[Outro]
Nothing but a life of crime
Nothing but a life of crime
Nothing but a life of crime
Nothing but a life of crime
