Moonface Still A Criminal Lyrics
Still A Criminal by Moonface
I spent the money, I got the clothes, I looked alright
There was a dreamlike quality to the way the streets
Took the streetlight
I didn't go to the party. I took a walk down the hill to the sea
Still a criminal
Still free
Still a criminal
Still free
Live free or die
Said the blessedly and terrifyingly empty sky
I cut my hair, I cut down on alcohol, I cut some songs
I said a prayer for the angel
I'm pretty sure my mother believes in
I made a point of being where decent people
Made a point of telling me I should be
But I was still a criminal
Still free
But I know how to live
A leopard in the tree
Yes I know how to live
How to live just like an ordinary guy
Live free or die said the orphan to the prince
Live free or die said the dying fire
Live free or die said the parrot to the parrot
And the scissor to the wing, and the wing to the scissor
Live free or die
Said the poet in the coffin
Said the elephant to the ocean
The mountaineer to the sailor
And the sailor to the earth
And the boy with no toys
And the comedian to the computer
And the hand to the finger
The hand to the finger
The hand to the finger
The music fan to the musician
Like the wind to the mediocre dancer
Live free or die
Said the blessedly and terrifyingly empty sky
But I know how to live
A leopard in the tree
Yes I know how to live
How to live just like an ordinary guy
There was a dreamlike quality to the way the streets
Took the streetlight
I didn't go to the party. I took a walk down the hill to the sea
Still a criminal
Still free
Still a criminal
Still free
Live free or die
Said the blessedly and terrifyingly empty sky
I cut my hair, I cut down on alcohol, I cut some songs
I said a prayer for the angel
I'm pretty sure my mother believes in
I made a point of being where decent people
Made a point of telling me I should be
But I was still a criminal
Still free
But I know how to live
A leopard in the tree
Yes I know how to live
How to live just like an ordinary guy
Live free or die said the orphan to the prince
Live free or die said the dying fire
Live free or die said the parrot to the parrot
And the scissor to the wing, and the wing to the scissor
Live free or die
Said the poet in the coffin
Said the elephant to the ocean
The mountaineer to the sailor
And the sailor to the earth
And the boy with no toys
And the comedian to the computer
And the hand to the finger
The hand to the finger
The hand to the finger
The music fan to the musician
Like the wind to the mediocre dancer
Live free or die
Said the blessedly and terrifyingly empty sky
But I know how to live
A leopard in the tree
Yes I know how to live
How to live just like an ordinary guy
