Trouble has always ever managed to find me
I do my best but in the end I usually get away
That's how it's always been quite comfortable in fact
And now at last you've caught me and it's time to finally pay

Is it the dead man walking
Who feels the most alive

And you're taking it to me
You sent a shock right through me
To begin is a lifetime
My partner in crime
And you're taking it to me
You sent a shock right through me
To begin is a lifetime
My partner in crime

Your lead dog is off the leash and he has treed me
Not the finest hiding place I see in retrospect
The only thing to possibly have freed me
Was the mercy that I squandered
No mercy I expect

Is it the dead man walking
Who feels the most alive

And you're taking it to me
You sent a shock right through me
To begin is a lifetime
My partner in crime
And you're taking it to me
You sent a shock right through me
To begin is a lifetime
My partner in crime

Is it the dead man walking
Who feels the most alive

And you're taking it to me
You sent a shock right through me
To begin is a lifetime
My partner in crime
And you're taking it to me
YOu sent a shock right through me
To begin is a lifetime
My partner in crime
And you're taking it to me
You sent a shock right through me
To begin is a lifetime
My partner in crime
