"Guilty As Charged" lyrics - CHAIRLIFT
Angel in the courtroom, eagle on the ceiling
My baby's sitting front row, witnessing my hearing
I tried to burn the record book collection
I tampered with the local lie detection
[Pre-Chorus:]
I'm guilty as charged
I'm guilty as charged
You know I'm guilty as charged
Go on and punish me
[Chorus:]
But if I gave you what you're asking for
You know you wouldn't want it anymore
If I gave you what you're asking for
You know you wouldn't want it anymore
[Posts-Chorus]
So I won't
No, no, no, no, no, I won't
So I won't
No, no, no, no, no, I won't
Footprints in the carpet, cameras on the ceiling
My baby's swearing on the bible in stolen golden earrings
The creaky floor set off the fire alarm
And I never wanted to do any harm
[Pre-Chorus:]
But I'm guilty as charged
I'm guilty as charged
I'm guilty as charged
You know I'm guilty as charged
Go on and punish me
[Chorus:]
But if I gave you what you're asking for
You know you wouldn't want it anymore
If I gave you what you're asking for
You know you wouldn't want it anymore
[Post-Chorus:]
So I won't
No, no, no, no, no, I won't
So I won't
No, no, no, no, no, I won't
