<You better get a lawyer>
When you said that it was time to change your point of view
Never entered in my mind that what you meant was we were through
Jumpin' to conclusions is really not my style
And if it's just illusion it'll vanish in a while
Perhaps the pain and stingin' is only in my mind
I can change my thinkin', but my heart is cryin' 'ouch!'
Chorus:
High Crime (what you doin' to me)
That you don't love me (that you don't love me)
High, high crime (in the first degree)
That you refuse my company
High, high crime (what you doin' to me)
That you don't love me (that you don't love me)
High, high crime (in the first degree)
That you refuse to stick with me (you refuse to stay)
<Don't you get the message?>
So this crazy night is through and here's the mornin' sun
Even though I still love you it's time to go and have some fun
So get yourself a lawyer and I'll meet you down in court
Pray the judge is for ya 'cause I'm claiming non-support
Here's my deposition, you left me high and dry
You left me with a photograph you didn't even sign
(Chorus)
[Instrumental break]
(Chorus)
High crime...
...That you refuse my company (you refuse to stay)
Stick with me
High crime (better get a lawyer)
That you don't love me (that you don't love me)
High, high crime (better get a lawyer quick)
That you, you refuse to stick with me
High, high crime...
When you said that it was time to change your point of view

I can change my thinkin', but my heart is cryin' 'ouch!'
