Lyrics
Thick As 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.
I held up a liquor store
Demanding top shelf metaphors
Sinner's smile and open arms
Drop a line to charm the silent alarm
Neutral angels calling the cops
They'll be choosing sides when the fighting stops
Polizia in the cabaret
While we six kings made our getaway
Thick as thieves, on our knees
With an ocean in between
Thick as thieves, on our knees
With an ocean in between
With an ocean in between
Laughter in the darkness
Whispers in the shadows
I was there when the wall fell down
I'll be there when the ocean rises
Building castles of cans and bottles
Drinking like they do in novels
Know they'll catch me by and by
But tonight you are my alibi
Same old sun that we all come from
Faded stars in the air that we breathe
In the earth, in the sea
Thick as thieves, on our knees
With an ocean in between
Thick as thieves, on our knees
With an ocean in between
Thick as thieves, on our knees
With an ocean in between
Thick as thieves, on our knees
With an ocean in between
With an ocean in between
