Lyrics
0:17You were lyin' there with nothing on
0:20But a goofy little grin and a platinum blonde
0:22I can't believe you'd do that on our bed
0:29I got a pistol and I got a bullet
0:31And a pissed off finger just'a itchin' to pull it
0:34The only thing keepin' me from losin' my head
0:39Is I hate stripes and orange ain't my color
0:45And if I squeeze that trigger tonight
0:48I'll be wearin' one or the other
0:51There's no crime of passion worth a crime of fashion
0:54The only thing savin' your life
0:57Is that I don't look good in orange and I hate stripes
1:03Woah woah woah
1:12I could fall in love with the prison guard
1:15I could sell cigarettes in the prison yard
1:17Don't think hard time would be that hard on me
1:23I could pick up trash on the side of the road
1:26But I'd die if I saw someone I know
1:29Ain't the chains it's the clothes that's stoppin' me
1:34I hate stripes and orange ain't my color
1:40And if I squeeze that trigger tonight
1:43I'll be wearin' one or the other
1:45There's no crime of passion worth a crime of fashion
1:49The only thing savin' your life
1:52Is that I don't look good in orange and I hate stripes
1:58Oh and one shot ain't worth a bad mugshot
2:03God knows I wouldn't be caught holdin' up a number
2:06While the whole town's starin' at the picture
2:08In the paper of me wearin' stripes
2:21There's no crime of passion worth a crime of fashion
2:24The only thing savin' your life
2:27Is that I don't look good in orange and I hate stripes
2:32And orange ain't my color
2:35And if I squeeze that trigger tonight
2:38I'll be wearin' one or the other
2:40There's no crime of passion worth a crime of fashion
2:44The only thing savin' your life
2:47Is that I don't look good in orange and I hate stripes
2:53Woah woah woah woah
You were lyin' there with nothing on But a goofy little grin and a platinum blonde I can't believe you'd do that on our bed I got a pistol and I got a bullet And a pissed off finger just'a itchin' to pull it The only thing keepin' me from losin' my head Is I hate stripes and orange ain't my color And if I squeeze that trigger tonight I'll be wearin' one or the other There's no crime of passion worth a crime of fashion The only thing savin' your life Is that I don't look good in orange and I hate stripes Woah woah woah I could fall in love with the prison guard I could sell cigarettes in the prison yard Don't think hard time would be that hard on me I could pick up trash on the side of the road But I'd die if I saw someone I know Ain't the chains it's the clothes that's stoppin' me I hate stripes and orange ain't my color And if I squeeze that trigger tonight I'll be wearin' one or the other There's no crime of passion worth a crime of fashion The only thing savin' your life Is that I don't look good in orange and I hate stripes Oh and one shot ain't worth a bad mugshot God knows I wouldn't be caught holdin' up a number While the whole town's starin' at the picture In the paper of me wearin' stripes There's no crime of passion worth a crime of fashion The only thing savin' your life Is that I don't look good in orange and I hate stripes And orange ain't my color And if I squeeze that trigger tonight I'll be wearin' one or the other There's no crime of passion worth a crime of fashion The only thing savin' your life Is that I don't look good in orange and I hate stripes Woah woah woah woah
