Thick as Thieves Lyrics


Living for your interests

Lobby work is done

Gotta feed the greed machine

Got dirt on everyone

Greed’s your sole agenda

Finger in all pies

Sow the seeds of avarice

You’re reaching for the sky

… and the thievery goes on!

Witness the honor among thieves

They’re well connected, you will see

Amassing wealth beyond belief

The poor left groveling beneath

… And so the thievery goes on!

The thievery goes oooooooooon!!!!!!

Work’s for fools and horses,

Middle class erodes

Digits shifted back and forth

You watch your shares explode

Feeding of a system

Caters for your needs

Know the loopholes, pull some strings

Watch the excess exceed

… and the thievery goes on!

Behold they’re all just thick as thieves

Pulling the strings behind the scenes

A system rotten and depraved

Can’t take it with you to the grave

*********************************************

Spoken:

You steal a 100 you get reprimanded

Evade your taxes you get incarcerated,

Embezzle thousands you get reinstated,

Take a million you get elevated!

***********************************************

Witness the honor among thieves

They’re well connected, you will see

Amassing wealth beyond belief

The poor left groveling beneath
