Lyrics
Lines upon your face don't guarantee wisdom
Money in the bank don't make you rich
Passport stamps don't make you well traveled
Never scratching dont mean that you dont itch
It's a crime, it's a crime It's a crime, it's a crime
It's a crime, it's a crime It's a crime, it's a crime
Lots of words dont make you more interesting
Whiter teeth dont make your smile more genuine
Dropping names dont make you impressive
Sticking to your rules may mean you never win
It's a crime, it's a crime It's a crime, it's a crime
It's a crime, it's a crime It's a crime, it's a crime
Fancy cars dont make you successful
Designer clothes dont mean that you have style
Being seen in all the right places
Boosts your ego only for a while
It's a crime, it's a crime It's a crime, it's a crime
It's a crime, it's a crime It's a crime, it's a crime
The laws of Nature tell us that we dont live life alone
And I hope that one day you will understand
That we just have to take a chance each day and hold out our hand
