Vertigo (If It's A Crime)
big boat caught in my throat it's the deck hand hitting the wrong notes came to with a pain in my gut again I cut it open wide, took out a box inside the box there was a beat keeping time is it a crime to pass the blame if every time the punishment is the same? life is a loose tooth leaving your mouth so get it out get it out dig that ditch ditch that dirt it's just a body now pick me up so I can fall back down again decending into vertigo if it's a crime they'll hang me every time I tried to offer up a reason why I tried, my dear, to set things straight I fear that I was too late to be cleared of the crime I ust missed a slap on the wrist, a key witness to the stand but the jury's out creeping about & I am a guilty man and the cyst is growing into this so I drowned in the boat I choked down and the captain remained proud looked down, seeing the ground getting closer to me and now the ground is coming up my sleeves Songtextepick me up so I can fall back down again descending into vertigo if it's a crime they'll hang me every time I tried to offer up a reason why I tried, my dear, to set things straight I fear that I was too late to be cleared of the crime if it's a crime, they'll hang me every time I tried to set things straight I fear that I was too late to be cleared of the crime Aus Songtexte Mania
