    this flexi contains a song for are time ... from another time, (c1970s)
    or for almost any time in human existence.



    Crime doesn't pay well
    Small guy always loses
    You gotta be big
    To do what you chooses
    Don't be a cop
    Be the Fuck'n President
    Be the owner of the property
    Don't be a resident

    Crime doesn't pay well
    No it don't
    Crime doesn't pay well
    No it won't

    One man's crime
    Is another man's right
    When you got the power
    Everything is alright
    When you win the battle
    Then you are the hero
    The loser's called "terrorist"
    And he's a total zero.

    Crime doesn't pay well
    No it don't
    Crime doesn't pay well
    No it won't

    Steal the goose from The Common,
    Then you are a thief
    Steal The Common from the people
    Then they'll call you "Chief"

    Crime doesn't pay well
    Don't be a jerk
    Be the guy who steals from the workers
    Not the schmucks who work
    Then they'll call it "enterprise"
    And you'll live at The Ritz
    Hey but to me, darling
    You're still a son of a bitch

    Crime doesn't pay well
    No it don't
    Crime doesn't pay well
    No it won't

    Till you are the top man
    Then you will see
    All the law men
    Kiss your ass tenderly

    Crime doesn't pay well
    No it don't
    Crime doesn't pay well
    No it won't

    Crime doesn't pay well..."
