X Offender - Private Stock Single Version / Remastered
I saw you standing on the corner
You looked so big and fine
I really wanted to go out with you
So when you smiled, I laid my heart on the line
You read me my rights and then you said
"Let's go" and nothing more
I thought of my nights, and how they were
They were filled with
I know you wouldn't go
You'd watch my heart burst then you'd step in
I had to know, so I asked
You just had to laugh
We sat in the night with my hands cuffed at my side
I look at your life and your style
I wanted nothing more
I know you wouldn't go
You'd watch my heart burst then you'd step in
I had to know, so I asked
You just had to laugh
Walking the line, you were a marksman
Told me that law, like wine, is ageless
Public defender
You had to admit if you wanted
The love of a sex offender
I know you wouldn't go
You'd watch my heart burst then you'd step in
I had to know, so I asked
You just had to laugh
My vision in blue
I call you from inside my cell
And in the trial, you were there with
Your badge and rubber boots
I think all the time
How I'm going to perpetrate love with you
And when I get out, there's no doubt
I'll be sex offensive to you
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
You looked so big and fine
I really wanted to go out with you
So when you smiled, I laid my heart on the line
You read me my rights and then you said
"Let's go" and nothing more
I thought of my nights, and how they were
They were filled with
I know you wouldn't go
You'd watch my heart burst then you'd step in
I had to know, so I asked
You just had to laugh
We sat in the night with my hands cuffed at my side
I look at your life and your style
I wanted nothing more
I know you wouldn't go
You'd watch my heart burst then you'd step in
I had to know, so I asked
You just had to laugh
Walking the line, you were a marksman
Told me that law, like wine, is ageless
Public defender
You had to admit if you wanted
The love of a sex offender
I know you wouldn't go
You'd watch my heart burst then you'd step in
I had to know, so I asked
You just had to laugh
My vision in blue
I call you from inside my cell
And in the trial, you were there with
Your badge and rubber boots
I think all the time
How I'm going to perpetrate love with you
And when I get out, there's no doubt
I'll be sex offensive to you
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
