CRIME DOES PAY

CRIME DOES PAY
"Crime does not pay..."
The song we are quick to sing our youths...
Hoping it will stop them going astray...
Only for them to discover that's all untruths...
I see...
Vandals having carnivals and festivals...
Enjoying their wages in open admiration...
And youthful eyes watch in unabashed adoration...
Yet you say crime does not pay?...
I see...
Terrorists become Kings...
Amnesty is their betrothed...
Wife inherited from Justice her husband long dead...
Now they swim in wealth like ducklings...
Yet you say crime does not pay?...
Look...
Murderer just walk passed...
Cultist and arsonist following right behind him...
Where are they going?
They are going to London to see the Queen!...
That is not possible they won't pass the screen...
They do not need to, they already have a pass...
Can you now see my friend, crime does pay...
