Criminal (originally by Britney Spears)

[Intro]

I was drowning in a raincloud

Thirty thousand feet above Bridgewater

And on stacks of petty cash and stolen jewellery

He extended his bony arms and grabbed me by my shirt

A six-hundred-mile-per-hour fastball

Headed straight for the middle of town

Their sinews are starting to rip

My face was coming off

You will reach the sun

I tried to pick up what was left of it

'Til he put his hand on my shoulder and said

"I like you better like this"

He wraps back around in the strangest of ways

[Verse 1]

He is a hustler, he's no good at all

He is a losеr, he's a bum, bum, bum, bum

He lies, hе bluffs, he's unreliable

He is a sucker with a gun, gun, gun, gun

I know you told me I should stay away

I know you said he's just a dog astray

He's a bad boy with a tainted heart

And even I know this ain't smart

[Chorus]

But Mama, I'm in love with a criminal

And this type of love isn't rational, it's physical

Mama, please don't cry, I will be alright

All reason aside, I just can't deny, love the guy

[Verse 2]

Uh, he is a villain by the devil's law

He is a killer just for fun, fun, fun, fun

The man's a snitch and unpredictable

He's got no conscience, he got none

Oh-oh, I know, oh, should've let go, but no

'Cause he is a bad boy with a tainted heart

And even I know this ain't smart

[Chorus]

But Mama, I'm in love with a criminal

And this type of love isn't rational, it's physical

Mama, please don't cry, I will be alright

All reason aside, I just can't deny, love the guy

[Bridge]

And he's got my name

Tattooed on his arm, his lucky charm

So I guess it's okay, he's with me

And I hear people talk (People talk)

Try to make remarks, keep us apart

But I don't even hear, I don't care

[Chorus]

'Cause Mama, I'm in love with a criminal

And this type of love isn't rational, it's physical

Mama, please don't cry, I will be alright

All reason aside, I just can't deny, love the guy

(Oh, I know, oh) Mama, I'm in love with a criminal

(Should've let go) And this type of love isn't rational

(But no) It's physical

(Oh, I know, oh) Mama, please don't cry, I will be alright

(Should've let go) All reason aside

(But no) I just can't deny, love the guy
