Partners In Crime

I said "you looked pretty"
All strung out on coke
You said "it's not funny"
But it wasn't a joke
And you won't remember
But I carried you home
You sat in the shower
While I washed off your clothes
But isn't that what friends are for?
Even if we used to be more
Like lovers, or partners in crime
And you were still mine
You said we should get out
While we still could
And I should've listened
But I misunderstood
Thought you wanted me tied down
I started to chafe
But it's easy to see now
You just wanted me safe
And when the cops broke down our door
And held us both against our floor
Did we look like lovers or partners in crime?
Did you look like mine?
Or did we look like fools trying to get away with it all?
Thinking we'd be saved by a call for each other
We were on the same boat
Didn't see you for ages
Didn't pick up your phone
Made it out of our cages
Never made it back home
I was late to the party
Of an old family friend
I was looking for parking
Thought I saw you again
You're someone I've seen before
You couldn't look any more
Like a lover or a partner in crime
Or something of mine
I said "you look pretty"
All strung out on coke
You said "it's not funny"
But it wasn't a joke
