Lyrics
A Perfect Crime - James Morris Pearson/Donna May Krieger - Copyright 2010
Verse
Drain the fluid from the brake line,
nail the peddle to the floor,
when that engine starts to red line,
greedy leaders scream for more...
Pre
The more they take, the more they need,
like fire ants who fight as they feed.
They take us along for their ride, so hold on tight.
Chorus
It's a dangerous road; we're running out of time,
seems like there's no choice, so we stand by and watch a perfect crime.
Verse
When the servants become masters,
they change the rules and laws erode.
They take kickbacks from the "Banksters",
and disappear on down the road...
Pre
They hide in plain sight without a disguise,
as brazen as Bonnie and Clyde,
Take us along for the ride, so hold on tight.
Chorus
It's a dangerous road; we're running out of time,
seems like there's no choice, so we stand by and watch a perfect crime.
----------- instrumental section ------
Bridge
Vultures circle up above.
crush the Eagle and the Dove,
Changing players don't change the game,
when both sides play the same.
Pre
Passing their keys to the next guys,
who spin tires and make the sparks fly,
Take us along for the ride, so hold on tight.
Chorus
It's a dangerous road; we're running out of time,
seems like there's no choice, so we stand by and watch another perfect crime.
