Put The Law On You Lyrics & Chords By Natalie Merchant

Do I have to put the law on you baby
for all the wicked thing you do
Am I gonna have to put the law on you baby
That was not what I wanted to do
Do I have to put the law on you baby
to try to make you come out clean
for every evil deed
You're just about the lowest
and the dirtiest thing I've ever seen
Did you really think you could pull it off
the perfect crime, crime of the heart
Do you really think you'll get away
do the crime and never pay
Do I have to put the law on you baby
lock you up and throw away the key
for the countless counts of low down double-cross
you've been about
Have you no decency
Did you really think that you could pull it off
the perfect crime, crime of the heart
Do you really think that you'll get away
Escape my justice until your dying day
Though you made it clear from the very start
there was no trusting you with my foolish heart
Though you maybe made it clear
that didn't make it right
So you really think you'll get away
You can't escape my justice 'till my dying day
