Lyrics

(Vice) You have the right to remain silent Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law You have the right for an attorney If you do not or cannot afford an attorney An attorney will be appointed to you You are now under arrest Crime, it pays real nice But what you really didn't know, the crime pays twice It pays once in money, twice in years In the jail cell, trying to hide your tears In the trick bag, 'cause you tried to get rich In the graveyard, or in the shallow ditch It's money or time, so make up your mind Vice, vice, vice, vice, vice Miami Vice Vice Vice, vice, vice, vice, vice Miami Vice Vice Vice, vice, vice, vice, vice Fraud, the girl he adored Turned out to be another dirty old broad Took all the money, told all the lies I heard she even slept with other guys Nothing she wouldn't do for a dollar or two But every lie she told, he knew to be true He loved his honey, but she loved money (Vice, vice, vice, vice, vice) Talking about yayo, uh, it's everywhere you go They said in Miami, it'll never snow Now it snow in the palm trees, snow on the sand It snows all day, for sixty dollars a gram Now they're strung out and high, hung out to dry The air that they breathe, the food that they buy They think that they can fly, but that's a white lie Vice, vice, vice, vice, vice Miami Vice Vice, vice, vice, vice, vice Miami Vice Vice, vice, vice, vice, vice Vice Vice, vice, vice, vice, vice Miami Vice Vice, vice, vice, vice, vice The mob, a full-time job Known to extort and steal or rob Started as a hitman looking for wealth And now he's the boss working for himself For all the blood money that he did earn It made him take lives with no concern But soon he would learn that next is his turn Prostitution, it's a low-down shame How any girl would want to play that game From pillow to post, a sidewalk host But the lady's got a condo out in the coast She thought that the - was better than gold Now she worked on her back 'til she got too old Laying down on the job has made her a slob, uh (Vice, vice, vice, vice, vice) It's a stick-up, so throw your hands in the air And don't put 'em down, keep 'em way up there Just slip me your wallet, empty all your pockets Got an itchy trigger finger and I'm going to cock it My eyes got wide as it pulled away I said, "Who are you, the cops?" He began to say "No, I'm Clint Eastwood, make my day" Get in the car Homicide is on the rise and to no surprise The bums are in the alleyways trying to take lives People burglarizing, suicidal, criminals are never idle Car procedures, amputees, and circus thieves Conman, fencer, arsonist, and crook Take all the fingerprints and give 'em to book And then hope that the judge don't let 'em off the hook, uh Vice Vice Vice Vice Miami Vice Vice Vice Vice Miami Vice Vice Vice
