Lyrics
Thieves
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Thieves, thieves and liars, murderers
Hypocrites and bastards
Hey thanks for nothing!
Morals in the dust
Two-faced bastards and syncophants
No trust
Thieves! liar!
Inside, outside, which side, you don't know
My side, your side, their side, we don't know
Which side are they? which side are they?
Which side of their mouth do you suppose that it came?
Which side are they? which side are they?
Which side of the grass is greener?
Inside, outside, which side, you don't know
My side, your side, their side, we don't know
You're like a great big fucking gun
Just waiting to get squeezed!
Breathe, forfeit erection!
Toxical injection
Geriatric fuck-fest
We still believe in lies
Thieves! liar!
Inside, outside, which side, you don't know
My side, your side, their side, we don't know
Who started it? who started it?
Which side are they? which side are they?
Which side of their mouth do you suppose that it came?
Which side are they? which side are they?
Which side of the grass is greener?
Inside, outside, which side, you don't know
My side, your side, their side, no one knows
You're like a great big hit of acid
Waiting to be taken!
