Not a Crime
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Drop the charges!
The fire and the power, you know
In the old time it was not a crime, drop the charges
You people don't you realize the sun rises?
In the old time, in the old time
In the old time it was not a crime (what are you talking about?)
In the old time, in the old time
In the old time it was not a, not a crime
Not a crime!
(It's all nonsensical)
Not a crime!
In the old time, in the old time
In the old time it was not a crime
In the old time, in the old time
In the old time it was not a, not a crime
Not a crime
(Drop the charges)
Not a crime
Not a crime
Reality
Spices, creation, realization, naturalization
What are you talking about? It's all about time 'cos today you go to nature
In the old time, in the old time
In the old time it was not a crime
In the old time, in the old time
In the old time it was not a crime
Not a crime
Not a crime
Not a crime
Drop the charges
Not a crime
Not a crime
Not a crime
