It's Not the Crime - Tower Of Power

I broke the law last night

Committed a criminal and sexual act

She was on top in this state

I said I went to get bopped

And though I didn’t get caught

I know in my mind I committed no crime

Still by some fluke I’m here serving time

Oh no

It’s not the crime

And it’s not the thought

It’s not the deed

It’s if you get caught

I got some friends who like to stay high

Think of, the tax potential, if it was legal to buy

But instead the kid is forced to bust on victimless crimes

It’s the look last bust, nickel and dime, oh oh

It’s not the crime

And it’s not the thought

It’s not the deed

It’s if you get caught

Think of all them profiteers

And how they got that way

Cause they sure the hell would not be there

Without the payoff game that’s played

Think of what we could do

If it was you that was in their shoes

You either play the game or else you lose

Bad news

It’s not who’s sold

It’s not who’s bought

And it’s not the kickbacks

It’s if you get caught

It’s not the crime

It’s not the thought

And it’s not the deed

It’s if you get caught
