Death cab for cutie
   Sung it like a beauty
   Stepped out forgetting
   Danger has a duty
   Lonely night
   He wants to squeeze her tight
  
   They murder for a dollar
   No-one hears you holler
   Wrap up your baby
   Then you'll be a scholar
  
   Love stops knocking
   Your heart stops rocking
   It's crime time
   Crime time
  
   Out on the mainland
   Hit him with a right hand
   Stepped on his ego
   Now he feels like a man
   Do it right
   It's a lonely fight
  
   Playing Fats Waller
   Lipstick on your collar
   Back in 1950
   People had their honour
  
   Love stops knocking
   Your heart stops rocking
   It's crime time
   Crime time
  
   They murder for a dollar
   No-one hears you holler
   Wrap up your baby
   Then you'll be a scholar
  
   Love stops knocking
   Your heart stops rocking
   It's crime time
   Crime time
