A Crime in Your Town - Space, Didier Marouani

I came into town,

Went looking' round

For some place quiet,

I got off the bus,

What’s ball the fuss

Looked like a riot.

A crime in your town,

A crime in your town.

Crowd was running mad,

Looked pretty bad,

Tried to avoid it,

Ran the other day

Heard some one say

«He must have done it.»

A crime in your town,

A crime in your town.

I looked round to see,

Eyes fixed on me,

The crowd was charging,

Head began to swirl

And then some girl screamed

«Hey we’ve got it!».

A crime in your town,

A crime in your town.

I cried «It's not me It couldn’t be Why I just got here»,

But with all the noise

The people voices

No one could hear.

A crime in your town,

A crime in your town.

Just as I collapsed,

A cop at last

Came running over,

The crowd was closing in

«We saw it all

For you it’s over.»

A crime in your town,

A crime in your town.

A crime in your town,

A crime in your town.

Cop said '"On your feet

Hey I can’t keep

Them off forever,

When things calm back down

Come back to town",

I answered «Never!»
