Jim Caroll - Love Crimes Lyrics

Hollywood looks good at night

The tvs get fine reception

But last night jean told steve

About her imminent conception



She wants a plum tree for the house, for their child

Stevie raised his head and said, "thats wild!"



Stevie tried and tried

Jean would not comply

She said, "your partying needs, you see,

Aint nothing to this seed in me

You make love a crime



Billy dont live in his spirit

Billy dont live in his heart

Billy walks around times square at night

His body is his art



Life is easy when youre pretty and 16

Just make sure that your underwear is clean



Billy dont ask why

He just stares at the sky

He says, "love always leaves you bent,

This way I pay the rent."

He makes love a crime



I still believe in romance

I just think theres something missing

cause last night just by chance,

I saw you and ivan kissing



Jealousy rose up right

From its hole

Just when I had it all under control



Say goodbye, goodbye

cause youre both gonna die

Dont ask me why

Its all in your eyes,

You made love a crime



Dont ask me why

It reflects in your eyes

You made love a crime
