Maddy Prior Commit The Crime
Remember the Christians in Roman times
And the Inquisition in Spain
Think of the Jews in Germany
It is really all one and the same
People taking time to punish
Others for the way they live
And I have it in me to commit the crime
Do you have it in you to forgive ?
Think of the petty pickpocket
That is summarily thrown in gaol
The murderer and rapist
The one who never ever gets bail
Punished for stealing from others
Things they weren't willing to give
And I have it in me to commit the crime
Do you have it in you to forgive ?
Remember that hotel room
With the plaster peeling off the wall
Threats and recriminations
Echoing down the hall
A couple trying to steal from each other
All the things that they wanted to give
And I have it in me to commit the crime
Do you have it in you to forgive ?
And I have it in me to commit the crime
Do you have it in you to forgive ?
