Billy Joel - ain't no crime

가사는 아침에 눈을 뜨고 일상으로 돌아가는 과정을 이야기하며, 술로 인해 늦게 돌아온 남자와 그의 여자친구 간의 갈등을 묘사한다
누구나 감정의 변화와 관계의 어려움을 겪는 것은 자연스러운 일이라고 강조하고, 결국엔 계속해서 나아가야 한다는 긍정적인 메시지를 전한다

You got to open your eyes in the morning
Nine oclock comin with out any warnin
And you gotta get ready to go
You say you went out late last evenin
Did a lot of drinkin
Come home stinkin
And you went and fell asleep on the floor
And then your lady comes and finds you asleepin
Starts in to weepin bout the hours you been keepin
And you better get your ass out the door

Aint no crime
Say evrybody gets that way some time
Aint no crime
You know its good to get it on to get a load off your mind
Oh no, it aint no crime. Oh.

You got to open your eyes in the morning
Nine oclock comin with out any warnin
And you gotta get ready to go
Well now you tell me you love somebody
And youll love em forever
You may love em forever
But you wont like em all of the time
Well now you tell me you need somebody for the rest of your life
You might have somebody
But you wont want em evryday

Aint no crime
Say evrybody gets that way some time
Aint no crime
Well its just human nature
Happens all the time
Oh no, it aint no crime. Oh

And just as surely as the wind keeps blowin
The grass keeps growin
You gotta keep goin
And the Lord have mercy on your soul
La, la la la.
