Il testo della Love should be a crime

Words like love and happiness
Never seem to stand up baby
When you put them to the test, yeah
You say that you're a poet
That your life's a work of art
But you can't play love by numbers baby
You gotta play it all by heart

Baby, baby, baby, baby
It happens all the time
How you play me, play me, play me
Playing with my mind
Baby, baby, baby, baby
You're making me go crazy
And if you call that love
Then love should be a crime

Honesty bites the dust
Every time i hear you saying
That love is never lust yeah
Did you read it in a book?
Did you see it in a magazine?
Do you think that i'm some new age fool?
Do you think i'm so naive?

Baby, baby, baby, baby
It happens all the time
How you play me, play me, play me
Playing with my mind
Baby, baby, baby, baby
You're making me go crazy
And if you call that love
Then love should be a crime

Love should be
Love should be
Love should be a crime
You and me
Suddenly we got nothing to say
But the words get in the way

Baby, baby, baby, baby
It happens all the time
How you play me, play me, play me
Playing with my mind
Baby, baby, baby, baby
You're making me go crazy

And if you call that love
Then all it was
Was a pocketful of nothing
But a suicidal gun
If you call that love
Then love should be a crime
