lyrics

Little Criminals

we were little criminals
my honeybun and me
we knew every kind of dodge
such proud mendacity

she called me her nemesis
does that mean i seemed real
footprints in the alley trash
where once we did the deal

i live on the outside
though i keep peering in
trying to outflank the dark
where yet again i’ve been

there was never meaning
in the flicker of the screen
she saw something vanish
down the gutters in between

she said it was freedom
and then she laughed and laughed
as we paddled from the dock
the air hissed from the raft

chorus

she screamed at the magistrate
then tried to call her mom
nothing’s ever made much sense
since we blew off the prom

i live on the outside
though i keep peering in
trying to outflank the dark
where yet again i’ve been
