Joe Coffee Baby's Comin' Home Today
(It was a crime of passion, baby - that’s because
you’re
a very passionate woman. Now I can understand what’s
goin’ through your head when you saw me with that other
woman… but, did you have to shoot her 16 times?)
MY LOVE FOR YOU WAS OUR FIRST OFFENSE
INSANITY WAS YOUR ONLY DEFENSE
CAME INTO MY LIFE - YOU WERE MY FRIEND, AND MY SAVIOR
GETTIN’ OUT EARLY FOR GOOD BEHAVIOR

SEEMS LIKE FOREVER SINCE THEY LOCKED YOU AWAY
