- You did the crime
- But you ain’t doin’ the time
- Slippin’ through the system,
- like a slick little slime.
- They said “200 years”
- then the script got flipped.
- And it got done real quicked.
- Now you home for dinner time,
- Feeling all just fine.
- House arrest with AC, soft bed.
- And a wallet thick with what's mine.
- The streets stay broke,
- the people stay tricked.
- You did the crime,
- But you ain’t doin’ the time.
- Slippin’ through the system,
- like a slick little slime
- It cost you some cash
- But who pocketed what?
- The crooks got one, you got two?
- Or did they say “gimme d money”,
- there's none for you.
- So it was worth the stealin.
- Maybe you be doin it again.
- Cos you can do the crime
- But you wont do the time
- In the slick and the slime
- You be home for dinner time
