Don't saw off that shotgun
You'll win in the end
It's not superficial
They killed your best friend

Don't fight it with crime
Don't fight it with crime
Don't fight it with crime
Crime don't pay, crime don't pay!

He took the post office
Didn't look back
Before he could see them
One shot through his neck

Don't fight it with crime
Don't fight it with crime
Don't fight it with crime
Crime don't pay, crime don't pay!

X and Y were the best of friends (of friends)
They stuck together round the awkward bends
Since the killing Y tries to find (to find)
way to pay the guilty back in time

He's Dead.

Crime don't pay, crime don't pay!

X and Y were the best of friends (of friends)
They stuck together round the awkward bends
Since the killing Y tries to find (to find)
way to pay the guilty back in time

You want to deliver
You feel the revenge
But be a forgiver
And win in the end

Don't fight it with crime
Don't fight it with crime
Don't fight it with crime
Crime don't pay, crime don't pay!
