Jailbait
lyrics by Costa
I was hangin' at the mall just the other day
With nothin' to do, and less to say
Just then a group of girls came a-walkin' by
And one particular girl, yeah, she caught my eye
Had I known then what I know now, I wouldn't have tried
Chorus:
Cause the girl was only 16, she said she was 21
And someone told her daddy, and now he's got a gun
The girl is only 16, she said she was 21
And someone told her daddy, and now we're on the run
I called her up and soon we were going out
I was falling for her fast, yeah, there wasn't a doubt
She looked older than her age, it was plain to see
And all of the time she was lying to me
So the love that we shared was a felony
chorus
Bridge:
Why when we are looking for someone
Must we follow all these rules
It's just as if finding someone
Isn't hard enough to do
We go through life so full of questions,
but there's just one I have to mention:
Where were girls that looked like that when I was in high school?
We made plans for a trip, yeah, we couldn't wait
How was I to know we couldn't leave the state
Why do they all want to punish me
Just cause I didn't ask how old was she
What I call love, they call statuatory...
chorus
