Love In The Fir$t Degree

Love In The Fir$t Degree

Peter And The Test Tube Babies
(album: The $Hit Factory)

Last night I was dreaming, I was locked in a prison cell.
When I woke up screaming, I was calling out your name.
And the judge and the jury, they all put the blame on me,
they wouldn´t go for my story, they wouldn´t hear my plea.

Only you can set me free, ´cos I´m guilty (guilty), as a boy can be.
Come on baby, can´t you see, I stand accused of love in the first degree.

Someday I believe it, she´ll come to my rescue.
Unchain the heart you´re keeping, and let me start anew.
The hours pass slowly since you´ve thrown away the key.
Can´t you see that I´m lonely, won´t you help me please ?
