That being said ...



It wasn't me that pulled the plug 
I wasn't the one who fired that slug 
I didn't key your new car door 
I'm innocent like I was before 

That being said... 

I didn't cause that vehicle wreck 
I didn't pass a fraudulent cheque 
I didn't spill that oil on your floor 
I'm innocent like I was before 

That being said... 
if I knew I could... 

I was nowhere near that broken vase 
I didn't break your precious laws 
I was out of town when they robbed that store 
I'm innocent like I was before 

That being said... 
if I knew I could... 
get away with it all ... 

I'm not a thief and I'm not a spy 
I have a convenient alibi 
It's not like I started the third world war 
I'm innocent like I was before 

That being said... 
if I knew I could... 
get away with it all ... 
I probably would... 

You can't blame me for the state we're in 
I'm not responsible for original sin 
You think I'm guilty to the core 
But I'm innocent like I was before 

That being said...
