Partners in Crime

ft. Ashley Costello of New Years Day

[Chorus] You'll never take us alive We swore that death will do us part They'll call our crimes a work of art You'll never take us alive We'll live like spoiled royalty, lovers and partners Partners in crime Partners in crime [Verse 1] This, the tale of, reckless love, living a life of crime on the run A brush to a gun, to paint these states, green and red Everybody freeze, nobody move Put the money in the bag, or we will shoot Empty out the vault and me and my doll will be on our way [Pre-Chorus] Our paper faces flood the streets And if the heat comes close enough to burn Then we'll play with fire, 'cause [Chorus] You'll never take us alive We swore that death will do us part They'll call our crimes a work of art You'll never take us alive We'll live like spoiled royalty, lovers and partners Partners in crime Partners in crime (Oh, just try to catch us!) [Verse 2] Here we find our omnipotent outlaws fall behind the grind tonight Left unaware that the lone store owner won't go down without a fight Where we gonna go, he's got us pinned Baby I'm a little scared Now, don't you quit He's sounded the alarm, I hear the sirens closing in [Pre-Chorus] Our paper faces flood the streets And if the heat comes close enough to burn Then we're burning this place to the ground, 'cause [Chorus] You'll never take us alive We swore that death will do us part They'll call our crimes a work of art You'll never take us alive We'll live like spoiled royalty, lovers and partners Partners in crime Partners in crime [Spoken] Police department: We're the Placerville Sheriff's Police Department Come out with your hands up! We have the place surrounded Put your weapons down, put your weapons down! Ready men? Aim. Fire! [Bridge] The skies are black with lead-filled rain A morbid painting on display This is the night the young love died Buried at each other's side [Modified Chorus] You never took us alive We swore that death would do us part So now we haunt you in the dark You never took us alive We live as ghosts among these streets Lovers and partners Partners in crime Partners in crime Partners in crime
