You ain't no criminal
you are the victim here
they just don't understand us

maybe a year from now
people might come around but
our love is not their business, no

our love is not their business

watch them put on that righteous skin

pull out your skeletons
write your name on the bad list
well we can put up a fight

or we can live our lives
our love is not their business
our love is not their business


have i ever lied to you?
right now, what i speak is true

i saw them whispering
shaking their head like they know
but it ain't black and white

i wish they'd leave us alone
they've got nothing else to do
but look at our lives


how can i make you smile
how can i ease your mind

should i put on my red dress
ain't no small town to please
there's only you and me

and our love is not their business
our love is not their business
