Criminal Lyrics - Tidal - Fiona Apple

I've been a bad, bad girl 

I've been careless with a delicate man 

And it's a sad, sad world 

When a girl will break a boy just because she can 

 

Don't you tell me to deny it 

I've done wrong and I want to suffer for my sins 

I've come to you 'cause I need guidance to be true 

And I just don't know where I can begin 

 

What I need is a good defense 

'Cause I'm feeling like a criminal 

And I need to be redeemed 

To the one I've sinned against 

Because he's all I ever knew of love 

 

Heaven help me for the way I am 

Save me from these evil deeds before I get them done 

I know tomorrow brings the consequence at hand 

But I keep living this day like the next will never come 

 

Oh help me but don't tell me to deny it 

I've got to cleanse myself of all these lies 'till I'm good enough for him 

I've got a lot to lose and I'm bettin' high so I'm begging you 

Before it ends just tell me where to begin 

 

What I need is a good defense 

'Cause I'm feeling like a criminal 

And I need to be redeemed 

To the one I've sinned against 

Because he's all I ever knew of love 

 

Let me know the way 

Before there's hell to pay 

Give me room to lay the law and let me go 

I've got to make a play 

To make my lover stay 

So what would an angel say the devil wants to know 

 

What I need is a good defense 

'Cause I'm feeling like a criminal 

And I need to be redeemed 

To the one I've sinned against 

Because he's all I ever knew of love 

 

What I need is a good defense 

'Cause I'm feeling like a criminal 

And I need to be redeemed 

To the one I've sinned against 

Because he's all I ever knew of love
