"Criminal" by Fiona Apple

 

 

I've been a bad bad girl
I've been careless with my delicate man
And its a sad sad world
When a girl will break a boy
Just because she can


Don't you tell me to deny it
Right or Wrong
I wanna suffer for my sins
I've come to you 
Cuase I need guidance to be true
And I just don't know where I can begin




What I need is a good defense
'Cause I'm feelin' like a criminal
And I need to redeemed
To the one I've sinned against
Because he's all I ever knew of love


Heaven help me for the way I am
Save me from these evil deeds
Before I get them done
I know tomorrow brings the consequence
At hand
But I keep livin' this day like
The next will never come


Oh help me but don't tell me to deny it
I've got to cleanse myself
Of all these lies till I'm good
Enough for him
I've got a lot to lose 
And I'm bettin' high
So I'm beggin' you before it ends
Just tell me where to begin


What I need is a good defense
'Cause I'm feelin' like a criminal
And I need to redeemed
To the one I've sinned against
Because he's all I ever knew of love


Let me know the way
Before there's hell to pay
Give me room to lay the law and let me go
I've got to make a play
To make my lover stay
So what would an angel say
The devil wants to know


What I need is a good defense
'Cause I'm feelin' like a criminal
And I need to redeemed
To the one I've sinned against
Because he's all I ever knew of love


What I need is a good defense
'Cause I'm feelin' like a criminal
And I need to redeemed
To the one I've sinned against
Because he's all I ever knew of love
