I could be a har
e and I’d sneak into my priv
ate rivals dreaming I’m a burg
lar
Quick as any day in my fle
eting little chest of hopefuls l
ost it to the burgl
ars
I can be aware and ya ma
ybe I’m the same like pirates lik
ened to the burgl
ars
Threat on any day and I’m hi
ding from the hare who’s also hi
ding from the burgl
ars
And
I didn’t catch his name p
ow shot him on the range y
ow cause he was a burg
lar
Ha
ppens in the parks bo
ohoo even in the old d
ays stinking of the burgl
ars
Happens in my home, mm-h
mm, I never see it co
ming
When I was young we used to put
Alarms on our doors and screens like a burglar net
Now that I’m older I’m sure that’s absurd
That’s the word for the man who collects who’s he stealing from next
When
I was young my parents yelled
Beware of the ivory man that will steal and sell
Now that I’m older those words are still pure
Not the look of a crook in his books what’s he taking from y
ou?
And worried peeps go o
n about it
Say a lot of changes be
tter come
A p
ocket full of change is emp
tied by
A li
ttle gawky bright and bu
bbly bird
A
lot of heroes out there thi
nking bout it
But mi
nutes of their lives are tic
king down
And bo
ttles full of love are dru
nken by
A t
ricky trite and thirsty hu
ngry bird

They’re probably driving your car with someone
Close up your head cause they
Are reading your letters, come on pack up your bed for betters
(W
hat you think you o
wn you d
on’t, burglars!) x6
Stealing from the day. Didn’t take a se
cond. Listened to a record and they got a
way, sneaky are the burglars
When I cross their way, helpless like a chi
cken, bones will soon be clinkin,
Wearing me for p
lay, bracelet on a burglar
Thought I was ok, not as bad as s
ome, sunset on the slums see another d
ay, happy are the burglars
Brush it all away or do I let it s
ink in? Is it my ambition just to turn a
way? Freedom for the burglars
Has this town really gotten much better are the bur
glars gonna keep on trying to meddle with it?
