| Can – The Thief Lyrics | 11 years ago |
|
From the Can original, I get: Why must I be the thief? Why must I be the thief? Oh lord please won't you tell me Why must I be the thief? Why must I be the thief? He said to the hanging man And how come you're the only one Who's like a rock That always stands Why must I be the thief He asked of the hanging man And how come you're the only one to live with an open hand and Why must I be the thief he cursed and then he cried And the hanging man put out his hand And looked beyond his eye The thief he climbed that cross To share that other's fate But the Jesus man said not now My brother not now it's far too late Far too late far too late Far too late far too late Far too late far too late Far too late Do what you must Take what you can Steal the pride from every heart Every angry man Every angry man Every angry man I am the thief I am the thief And you may run, yes And you may hide But I'll get you yet Yes I will Cos you're, cos it's just your pride Just your pride Pride pride Pride pride Pride pride Pride pride I will get you yet Cos it's justified I will get you yet it's justified I will get you yet it's justified |
