The Lyrics

Or, "Ryder's on the storm." Oh, that stings!
Every dress you take and every cop you shake
every law you break, each receipt you fake, I'll be watching you.
Every single day, and every sale you slay
every con you play, every courtroom day, I'll be watching you.

Oh, can't you see the L.A.P.D.?
They'll catch a break with security tape!
Every move you made and every card you played
in your shoplift raid, it's all there, displayed. I was watching you!

Since you went and walked out on Johnny Depp
and didn't think Soul Asylum's guy was hep
you smoked your cigs and then you became a klep
you thought it might give your career some pep
but we're crying, "Winona, baby, pleeeeeeeeeease..."

Oh, can't you see the L.A.P.D.?
They'll catch a break with security tape!
Every move you made and every card you played
in your shoplift raid, it's all there, displayed. I was watching you!

I was watching you! (Every dress you take, every cop you shake, every law you break, each receipt you fake.)
I was watching you! (Every single day, every sale you slay, every con you play, every courtroom day.)
(repeat 'til fadeout)

Good pacing, and very good song. My only minor suggestion would be that this would have been better (and gotten more votes) if it was released a few months earlier, because of the timing of the events/trial.

Hey remember I like Winona she isn't all that bad right? There are times when she strikes me as brilliant and her curious stares are searching but that's just me you know? Other times she strikes me as a petty shoplifter but I got to give it up this is a good parody........... I got another parody for her later on...............hehehehe

I think Winona Ryder's Mentally ill. She'd have to be, seeing one moment, she's normal and the next, she's psychotic and steeling clothes from a store, which she could easily afford. A great bloody parady!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
