Criminal Lyrics - Singles - John Lydon

Like a criminal. 

Did you think it could be like on tv? 

Where you could be big in your own movie? 

Did real life let you down? 

A genuine pygmalion. 

Chorus: 

(criminal) like a criminal. 

(no) no good to anyone. 

(foolish) gotta get a life and get sensible. 

(no) no pity, no pardon. 

Criminal. just like a criminal. 

Could've been a factor. 

Could've been another distracter. 

Some like it in limousines, I like it in a tractor. 

Solo, separate, not just one of a crowd. 

Indifferent to compliment. 

I leave my funeral ground. 

Chorus 

(criminal) like a criminal. 

(no) no pity, no pardon. 

Just a criminal. 

Haven't got a clue. 

Cannot comprehend anything you value. 

I'm probably just like you. 

Yes, I haven't got a clue. 

Just let that judas goat lead you down that narrowing path. 

As affluence is your influence. 

You'll be of no consequence. 

Chorus 

(criminal) like a criminal. 

(no) no pity, no pardon. 

Yes, I haven't got a clue. 

Just like a criminal. 

I can not comprehend anything you value. 

Probably just like you. 

Yes, I haven't got a clue. 

I cannot comprehend anything you value.
