Lyrics
GUILT BY ASSOCIATION
VERSE 1
Guilt by association
When I'm with you
Another false accusation
What can I do
You may not be a stranger
You could be a lover
You are the present danger
I should run for cover
CHORUS
No need for prosecution, can I make a call?
I'll make a full confession, I will tell it all
Who was the accomplice, who will take the fall?
VERSE 2
Guilt by association
It's so unjust
It's not my imagination
It's not about trust
It's not scribed in ink
It don't mean boo
Not about what you think
It's about what you do
CHORUS
VERSE 3
Guilt by association
I'm still at large
No warrant or citation
I won't be charged
I'm still under suspicion
For being with you
I'll be free under one condition
That is we're through
CHORUS
SOLO
Vocal improv
