Early reviews I read about that song made that mistake, but I figured they'll eventually realize the word he sings is "crying," not "crime." Crime doesn't even make sense in that context!

So fast forward to today, and I see the same mistake made by the staff in the lead article for antsmarching dot org! What gives?! He does sing "crying," does he not?!
I noticed that too. Don't call Dave out on a lyric that doesn't make sense when you don't actually know what the lyric is
