THE NEW PORNOGRAPHERS LYRICS - Breakin' The Law

"Breakin' The Law"



I can never place the name with the face.

I can never place the name with the face.



Don't touch me;

Don't touch me up to the tee by the numbers.

It's not much but I'm going under.

It's not much but I'm going under.

It's not much but I'm going under.



Liar, Liar, everything's on fire.

So I don't want to hear how you crossed the wires.

Don't touch me, don't touch me up,

Watch, I'll take it to the river.

You'll come too, little Indian giver.

You'll come too, little Indian giver.

You'll come too, little Indian giver.



So give us the keys now,

We'll burn this hall of justice down.

Around the ankles, or just to the ground.

Hats off to the city fathers,

They're no longer a hundred feet tall.

They're no longer, no longer,

And we're just here,

Another hundred feet stronger.
