Lyrics
Crime Of The Century
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.
Now they're planning the crime of the century
Well what will it be?
Read all about their schemes and adventuring
It's well worth the fee
So roll up and see
And they rape the universe
How they've gone from bad to worse
Who are these men of lust, greed, and glory?
Rip off the masks and let's see
But that's no right - oh no, what's the story?
There's you and there's me
That can't be right
