Midnight pizza and hot black coffee
The detective’s glare says come and see 
Another case
Another twist
I can't relax, until I hear the handcuffs click 

(suspect is in custody, I repeat the suspect is in custody)

[Chorus]
Hooked on the heist
Hot on the scene
Living in a world of crime and caffeine
Who fled the scene
Who hid the body
Who had the affair
The widow's stare 
Who stole the jewels
Who hid the knife
Crime TV 's my double life
(my double life)

[Verse 2]
Every alibi's a masterpiece
Clues like breadcrumbs make a lovely feast
The killer smiles
The hustler finds his mark 
The loan shark will hunt you down 
 if you dare go dark

[Pre-chorus]
It’s all a mental game
A wicked riddle
Do you wanna solve the crime?
you gotta understand the criminal mind 

[Chorus]
Hooked on the heist
Hot on the scene
Living in a world of crime and caffeine
Who fled the scene
Who hid the body
Who had the affair
The widow's stare 
Who stole the jewels
Who hid the knife
Crime TV 's my double life
(my double life)

[Verse]
Plot twists hit me like a runaway train
Suspects spinning circles in my brain
Lawyers yelling
Jurors swaying
The Judge agrees to another delay 

[Bridge]
Why you crime-ing why you are sneaking
What’s the thrill that you’re seeking
Why you crime-ing why you are hiding
You're on the edge where your freedom is riding

[Verse]
There’s a ticking clock inside my head
Counting down till I see the blue and red
You might say it's obsession, 
I call it, need to know
But you know 
I'd join the crime team in a minute  if they'd let me go

[Pre-chorus]
It’s all a mental game
A wicked  riddle
Do you wanna solve the crime?
you gotta understand the criminal mind 


[Chorus]
Hooked on the heist
Hot on the scene
Living in a world of crime and caffeine
Who fled the scene
Who hid the body
Who had the affair
The widow's stare 
Who stole the jewels
Who hid the knife
Crime TV 's my double life
(my double life)

[Bridge]
Suspect says he's gonna beat the rap
Seriously?
We'll see about that 
He's been on a losing streak 
I'll tune in to see what happens next week.


Don't be crime-ing
I said, don't be crime-ing
On Crime TV

CRIME TV

At heart, I  am an emotionally honest, lyrically driven storyteller. I  love the written word. I love wrapping music around words in a musical story that is flavored with Indie, folk, country, classic rock,  jazz, blues, ballads anthems.
