Love Should Be A Crime

Words like love and happiness

Never seem to stand up baby

When you put them to the test, yeah

You say that you're a poet

That your love's a work of art

But you can't play love by numbers babe

You gotta play it all by heart

Chorus:

Baby, baby. baby, baby

It happens all the time

How you play me, play me, play me

Playing with my mind

Baby, baby, baby, baby

You're making me go crazy

And if you call that love

Then love should be a crime

Honesty

Bites the dust

Every time I hear you saying

Love is never lust, yeah

Did you read it in a book

Did you see it in a magazine

Do you think that I'm some new age fool

Do you think I'm so naive

Chorus

Love, Love, Love, Love lahaaah

Love should be a crime

Love should be a crime

You & me

Suddenly

We got nothing to say

But the words get in the way

Baby baby, baby, baby

It happens all the time

How you play me, play me, play me

Playing with my mind

Baby baby baby baby

You're making me go crazy

And if you call that love

Then all it was

Was a pocket full of nothing

But a suicidal gun

If you call that love

Then love should be a crime
