Swing For The Crime

D C#m Bm A
Bm C#m B

Bm
Locked in a room full of words
F#m
I’m the one-eyed midget with the curse
A
The simpleton who sweetly smiles at his young lover now beguiled
E                                                            B
The sycophantic morons lied at Romeo who is the bride, let's ride
Bm
Stoned as I walk down the hall
F#m
The adman waits to hear the curse and call
A
The angels scream in discontent as to the river they are led
E
The actors bow and pay the rent, we cover them in cold cement
B
Let's swing for the crime everyone in double time

       D             E          Bm
And we hope that you had a good time
     D             E          Bm
Yeah smile as you sign on the line
     D             E          Bm
Because life on your knees can be fun
     D             E          Bm
Surprised now you're not the only one

Bm
Led like a lamb into this gloom
F#m
Yeah Freud is in the back room with his goons
A
Now they've got new experiments, the metal groans, the limbs are rent
E
The anti-heros’ mock dissent, we market now by mass consent
B
We swing for the crime everyone in double time

Bm
Scream like you’ll burst if they cry
F#m
Is changed by the words that you learn
A
But Jack the Ripper is inside And Moriarty has imbibed
E
They live, they marry, all the while We laugh and have them circumcised

       D             E          Bm
And we hope that you had a good time
     D             E          Bm
Yeah smile as you sign on the line
     D             E          Bm
Because life on your knees can be fun
     D             E          Bm
Surprised now you're not the only one
