Crime Story lyrics


Walkabouts


Thunder laughs and thunderclaps

The afternoons round here,
Thunder laughs and thunderclaps
Well theyre just like that
The afternoons round here,

Well theyre just like that
I know ya dont spook easy

I know ya wont up and quit
I know ya dont spook easy
Lets keep it like that
I know ya wont up and quit
Now dont forget
Lets keep it like that

Now dont forget
When you go and make the drop

If he dont look ya in the eye
When you go and make the drop
Well ya better just walk
If he dont look ya in the eye

Well ya better just walk
Means madness is takin over

Madness is in charge
Means madness is takin over
Its come out of the woodwork
Madness is in charge
Madness-at-large
Its come out of the woodwork

Madness-at-large
Keep things close

Keep the dogs at bay
Keep things close
Just walk on by
Keep the dogs at bay
Story of a crime
Just walk on by
Walk on by
Story of a crime
Story of a crime
Walk on by

Story of a crime
Whole thing sounds harder than it is

Timings everything
Whole thing sounds harder than it is
But then you knew that, before I did
Timings everything

But then you knew that, before I did
If this turns into a circus

Too much talkin, too much noise
If this turns into a circus
Walk on by
Too much talkin, too much noise
Keep holdin on to the bag
Walk on by

Keep holdin on to the bag
Theres a town on the spanish border

Where you can chill
Theres a town on the spanish border
Hes supposed to tell ya about it
Where you can chill
But if he dont, head for the hills
Hes supposed to tell ya about it

But if he dont, head for the hills
Find some empty olive grove

Where you can stash the car
Find some empty olive grove
Somewhere exotic
Where you can stash the car
Somewhere obscure
Somewhere exotic

Somewhere obscure
Sometimes you do what is wrong

So ya wont do whats worse
Sometimes you do what is wrong
If ya cant be righteous
So ya wont do whats worse
At least be careful
If ya cant be righteous
Just cause we feed the flame
At least be careful
Dont mean we have to got burned
Just cause we feed the flame
Dont mean we have to got burned
