Innocence Is No Excuse is the seventh studio album by heavy metal band Saxon released in 1985 (see 1985 in music). It was the group's first album for EMI after a falling-out with their previous label, Carrere Records. The album was a relative disappointment in the group's native UK, only reaching #36 on the British album charts, although its #130 placement on the American charts was the group's highest ever in the USA.
The song "Everybody Up" was used in the 1985 horror movie Demoni.

And love is taught hypocrisy from youth.”

If you please will excuse me
I won’t come to tea;
For home’s the best place for
All people like me!”
