Baby Burglar
Guide-less baby burglar
Where are you heading to?
How could you be so selfish?
How can you be so cruel?
Following in the footsteps of your mentor
Not knowing how you've
Broken all the rules
Adrift on your ship of fools
Aimlessly you turn your blind eye
To all that's in your path upside down
Oblivious in your destruction
Turning other hopes into
Dying embers and their ashes into dust
Oh, baby burglar
I once trod in your creeping footsteps
Going equipped into the night
If I were to turn
This weapon upon you
Who would be wrong? Who would right?
Well, Jesus Christs sake, baby burglar
Where will this wanton action end?
Under the wheels of a crazy horse
Dragged off in a moment of madness
Oh, baby burglar
I once trod in your creeping footsteps
Oh, baby burglar
I once trod in your creeping footsteps
Your cause of action, so easily avoided
Not even your god himself could defend
What a tragic mess we are in, baby burglar
Their grief will tear and consume, but will never end
Faith and time shall prevail over all
It's bright shining light will find wrong from right
Offer you a lifetime to ponder
Think this tragedy through
Oh, baby burglar
I once trod in your creeping footsteps
Oh, small-time murderer
May God forgive your misguided steps
Baby burglar
Baby burglar
Baby burglar
Where are you heading to?
How could you be so selfish?
How can you be so cruel?
Following in the footsteps of your mentor
Not knowing how you've
Broken all the rules
Adrift on your ship of fools
Aimlessly you turn your blind eye
To all that's in your path upside down
Oblivious in your destruction
Turning other hopes into
Dying embers and their ashes into dust
Oh, baby burglar
I once trod in your creeping footsteps
Going equipped into the night
If I were to turn
This weapon upon you
Who would be wrong? Who would right?
Well, Jesus Christs sake, baby burglar
Where will this wanton action end?
Under the wheels of a crazy horse
Dragged off in a moment of madness
Oh, baby burglar
I once trod in your creeping footsteps
Oh, baby burglar
I once trod in your creeping footsteps
Your cause of action, so easily avoided
Not even your god himself could defend
What a tragic mess we are in, baby burglar
Their grief will tear and consume, but will never end
Faith and time shall prevail over all
It's bright shining light will find wrong from right
Offer you a lifetime to ponder
Think this tragedy through
Oh, baby burglar
I once trod in your creeping footsteps
Oh, small-time murderer
May God forgive your misguided steps
Baby burglar
Baby burglar
Baby burglar
