Petty Thieving
Yeah, you
What's the attraction
Get out more than you put in
How does it start, how does it begin
With a fix
To redeem a boring day
I'm a returning customer
But this time I'm not gonna pay
Well you won't, suspect a thing
Because I'm a clean cut
Hair cut
And this veneer
Wears pretty thin
Not expected to fall
Because I'm carried all the way
But I can't meet your standards
Every single fucking day
Petty thieving
Petty thieving
I steal
So it's still
I steal
So it's still
It's still mine
Is this the answer
To the questions in my head
Or is it a distraction to steal me
From the lack of something else instead
Well I don't know
And I won't know 'til I've found it
And I'm grounded
I know it's petty but I'm thieving
I'm stealing
I'm thieving
I'm stealing...
Middle class man you ain't no bandit
Look at your hands, there's no red on it
Painted by a picture of smiling faces
Polite and you might just get away with it
I can be sure, you can't tell
Nice boy allure, works pretty well
Spent all my loan on beer and biscuits
Out and about got to eat, got to risk it
You won't
Suspect a thing
Because I'm a clean cut
Hair cut
And this veneer wears pretty thin
Not expected to fall
Because I'm carried all the way
But I can't meet your standards
Every single fucking day
Petty thieving
Petty thieving
I steal
So it's still
I steal
So it's still
It's still mine
I steal
So it's still
What's the attraction
Get out more than you put in
How does it start, how does it begin
With a fix
To redeem a boring day
I'm a returning customer
But this time I'm not gonna pay
Well you won't, suspect a thing
Because I'm a clean cut
Hair cut
And this veneer
Wears pretty thin
Not expected to fall
Because I'm carried all the way
But I can't meet your standards
Every single fucking day
Petty thieving
Petty thieving
I steal
So it's still
I steal
So it's still
It's still mine
Is this the answer
To the questions in my head
Or is it a distraction to steal me
From the lack of something else instead
Well I don't know
And I won't know 'til I've found it
And I'm grounded
I know it's petty but I'm thieving
I'm stealing
I'm thieving
I'm stealing...
Middle class man you ain't no bandit

Petty thieving
Petty thieving
I steal
So it's still
I steal
So it's still
It's still mine
I steal
So it's still
