CRIME OFTEN PAYS…
Crime often pays is a phrase I believe…
As a means to an end - you’ve a right to deceive!
Yes, a right to a living…
Please, take all you need…
Then go show all those doubters!
You’re bound to succeed!!
Does a polo neck suit you?
Something dapper and dark?
Try the life of a cat burglar –
You could make quite a mark!
Raffles did it before – now…
The finger’s pointing at YOU!
There is much left to steal…
You’ve a lot still to do!
Be a felon – a sneak thief…
Quick! Amassing a horde!
Making sure you enjoy it!
For we’d hate that you’re bored!
Tippy-toed on the rooftop - your swag bag to hand!
With your get-away car and your escape routes all planned!
Ah yes – crime often pays!
Sure, despite all that’s taught!
It’s all there for the taking…
Just now don’t let’s get caught!
Remember prison’s for losers…
For the third rate of brain!
If you must – do your time…
Then get out there again!
Your own crime of the century…
Now, this better be good!
Making front headline news…
Yes, you know that it should!
For if you don’t do it well…
Then no one else gives a fig!
Yes…
Because crime only pays…
ONCE YOU’RE MAKING IT BIG!!
