Criminal
   Written by Fiona Apple

  I've been a bad bad girl
  I've been careless with a delicate man
  And it's a sad sad world
  When a girl will break a boy,
  just because she can

  Don't you tell me to deny it
  I've done wrong and I wanna suffer for my sins
  I've come to you 'cuz I need
  guidance to be true
  And I just don't know where I can begin
  Oooohh...

  Chorus:
  What I need is a good defense
  'Cuz I'm feelin' like a criminal
  And I need to be redeemed
  To the one I sinned against
  Because he's all I ever knew of love

  Heaven help me for the way I am
  Save me from these evil deeds
  before I get them done
  I know tomorrow brings the consequence
  at hand
  But I keep livin' this day like
  the next will never come

  Oh, help me, but don't tell me to deny it
  I've got to cleanse myself.
  of all these lies 'till I'm good
  enough for him
  I've got a lot to lose and I'm bettin' high,
  so I'm beggin' you before it ends
  Just tell me where to begin
  Ehhyy...

  Chorus

  Lemme know the way
  Before there's hell to pay
  Give me room to lay the law and let me go
  I've got to make a plan
  to make my lover stay
  So, what would an angel say?,
  the devil wants to know

  Chorus x2
