Needle Time

LyricsI wish that I didn't hate you Least not as much as I do And squander all my contempt for A little nothing like you Liars like you are ten-a-penny Women would slap you, if you knew any Sometimes I feel just like committing a crime
I've got this suitcase of phony wisdom to dispense These twenty-seven or so years You'd think I would have made them some cents Now they want me fingerprinted like I was smuggling drugs While the government does deals with the most convenient thugs Sometimes I feel just like committing a crime It's Needle Time
I'm trying not to despise you with a passion that's hard to extinguish Or maybe I really love you although it's hard to distinguish I wish I could be more like a saint is Forgiving those who trespass against us Sometimes I feel just like committing a crime
I started talking nonsense, just like I did to begin with Around the time I tired of those sour English Sometimes I feel just like committing a crime It's Needle Time
