Sulkin´
walkin´ ´round the city after dark
need protection from street thugs
who clip the locks
and rip the doors off rugs
and 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
walkin´ ´round the city after dark
need protection from street thugs
who clip the locks
and rip the doors off rugs
and 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
