Not Guilty

Not Guilty

By Doug Haberman
Not Guilty
Lyrics by Doug Haberman


You always say my evil is subliminal
You make me feel, make me feel like a criminal
I’m up to no good but we’re in cahoots
Your hand’s on the trigger, this pistol shoots

If I’m guilty, I beg you, tell me my crime
If I’m guilty, believe me, I’ll do the time
I taped every moment, the movie’s uncut
Film at 11, we both know what’s what

You always tell me you want to believe
But you feel like I’m hiding a trick up my sleeve
We all hide something but that’s not tragic
My sleight of hand is better than magic

If I’m guilty, I beg you, tell me my crime
If I’m guilty, believe me, I’ll do the time
I taped every moment, my film’s cynical
It’s penetrating and not digital

And you’re golden but without the glitter
Still, your kisses taste a little bitter
You can probe my mind but you’ll get so dirty
Why does your love always have to hurt me?

You could call the cops, tell them to frisk me
They’d just find my flask of award-winning whiskey
I’d much prefer your soft hands pat me down
Something will turn up, bring fur cuffs around

If I’m guilty, I beg you, tell me my crime
If I’m guilty, believe me, I’ll do the time
I taped every moment, the Oscar awaits
In our shower scene there’s no Mr. Bates

If I’m guilty, I beg you, tell me my crime
If I’m guilty, believe me, I’ll do the time
I taped every moment because I’m obsessed
If they torture me, I’ll never confess
