Walkin' 'round the city after dark
Need protection from street toughs
Who clip the locks
And rip the doors off rough -
Like cowards
And all this life we've glorified
Robbin' from the blind
It's not easy, you see
Don't think I don't know sympathy
My victims in my shadow
Starin' back at me
Not me, I'm knockin
Tip toe outside a stranger's door
Casually let myself in
Fill pockets with
Trinkets, purses, china, antique armoirs
And all this life we've glorified
Robbin' from the blind
It's not easy you see
Don't think I don't know sympathy
My victims in my shadow
Starin back at me
As robbers in my thoughts
They tell me what to think
They're hiding in my clothes
Crawling in the kitchen sink
Sulkin' Walkin' 'round the city after dark Need protection from street toughs Who clip the locks And rip the doors off rough - Like cowards And all this life we've glorified Robbin' from the blind It's not easy, you see Don't think I don't know sympathy My victims in my shadow Starin' back at me Not me, I'm knockin Tip toe outside a stranger's door Casually let myself in Fill pockets with Trinkets, purses, china, antique armoirs And all this life we've glorified Robbin' from the blind It's not easy you see Don't think I don't know sympathy My victims in my shadow Starin back at me As robbers in my thoughts They tell me what to think They're hiding in my clothes Crawling in the kitchen sink Explain Request ×
