X Offender

I saw you standing on the corner
You looked so big and fine
I really wanted to go out with you
So when you smiled
I laid my heart on the line.
You read me my rights and then you said:
"Let's go" and nothing more
I thought of my nights and how they were
They were filled with
I know you wouldn't go
You'd watch my heart burst then, you'd step in
I had to know so I asked
You just had to laugh
We sat in the night with my hands cuffed at my side
I looked at your life and your style
I wanted nothing more
I know you wouldn't go
You'd watch my heart burst then, you'd step in
I had to know so I asked
You just had to laugh
Walking the line you were a marksman
Told me that law like wine is ageless
Public defender
You had to admit you wanted the love of a sex offender
I know you wouldn't go
You'd watch my heart burst then, you'd step in
I had to know so I asked, you just had to laugh
My vision in blue I call you from inside my cell
And in the trial you were there with, your badge and rubber boots
I think all the time how I'm going to perpetrate love with you
And when I get out there's no doubt
I'll be sex offensive to you
