"Bad Alibi"

When you get home at 5am
To a locked and bolted door
With all the old excuses
That won’t help you anymore
Go on and think of someone else
Who might support that lie
Don’t use me
I'm a bad alibi

The police come calling
To carry you away
You’re looking for a name to call
So you won’t have to stay
The cops don’t trust me anymore
I’m sure I don’t know why
I guess I'm just a bad alibi

Grim reaper looks for you
And hopes to drag you in
Another quiet judgment day
To pay for all your sin
A few words from me
And you just might get by
He knows me well
I'm a bad alibi
