Song Lyrics


No Alibi
by Sheila Walsh

Album: Triumph In The Air


When the checkout girl's got her fingers in the till
She won't look you in the eye when you pay your bill
She'll slip away when they check the cash
The sweat on her brow might show

No alibi, no alibi

Now take the businessman
He knows the tricks of the trade
Everybody does it, it's part of the game
You just keep cool and you cover your tracks
Funny how the truth comes back

No alibi, no alibi

Wash your hands of the situation
Spread a little more misinformation
Blame it on the moon, the stars or the signs
But where were you on the night of the crime

No alibi, no alibi
No alibi

No alibi

Married man wants jam on his bread
A girl makes eyes, he lets it go to his head
So he cheats on his wife, gets some tainted love
She says, "who were you with last night"

No alibi, no alibi

Take the video man, he's got a nasty streak
He's a bird of prey on the mind of the weak
He says he gives the public what he knows they like
But the streets aren't safe at night

No alibi, no alibi

Wash your hands of the situation
Spread a little more misinformation
Blame it on the moon, the stars or the signs
But where were you on the night of the crime

No alibi, no alibi
No alibi

No alibi

Rich man laughs, "gonna do as I choose
You won't catch me with no third world blues"
Sure, I like to butter my bread on every side
But I know how to sympathize

No alibi, no alibi

In the Garden of Eden
Something's missing from the tree
He says, "ask my wife, don't blame me"
She says, "don't ask me, that's no fair"
Hey, listen, there's something hissing over there

No alibi, no alibi

Wash your hands of the situation
Spread a little more misinformation
Blame it on the moon, the stars or the signs
But where were you on the night of the crime

No alibi, no alibi
No alibi, no alibi
No alibi, no alibi
No alibi, no alibi...
