Candy coated crime
I was on my best behaviour
When the old attraction came to rise
If I made my breath go faster
The moment would arise
Many times I’ve tried to refrain
But the image won’t subside
Could you be my sweet accomplice
In my candy coated crime
And if I only knew
If you know too
And what to do
Then I could do it to you
The moment would arrive
And if I knew you’d say
You would be meeting me half way then I could plan it with you
My candy coated crime
Who would show the faintest interest
If I took it way too far this time
Who cares if I get arrested
I’m only playing CSI
It’s like murder in a sweet shop
You can’t tell the blood from sweet delight
Could I be identified for
My candy coated crime
And if I only knew
If you know too
And what to do
Then I could do it to you
My life is on the line
And if I knew you’d say
You would be meeting me half way then I could plan it with you
My candy coated crime

And if I only knew
If you know too
And what to do
Then I could do it to you
The moment would arrive
And if I knew you’d say
You would be meeting me half way then i could plan it with you
My candy coated crime
And if I only knew
If you know too
And what to do
Then I could do it to you
My life is on the line
And if I knew you’d say
You would be meeting me half way then i could plan it with you
My candy coated crime
