Jewel Thief

(Album: Little Bastards - 2020)

Jewel thief, where do you get
All those pretty necklaces?
Jewel thief, where do you get
All those pretty rings?
Jewel thief, where do you get
All those silver pistols?
Jewel thief, where do you get
All those animal heads?

With lovely posture, you eat bread
Carefully chewing, when they shot you dead
You look like a mannequin with your mouth full
Don't worry baby, I'll take care of you

You've got a million horses at your door
You've got a feeling that you'll need a million more
I got a million horses of my own
In the evening, one by one, they carry me home

I'll get your telephone
I'll run a comb
Through your dead thief hair
Tell them you're not home

I'll wear your pretty clothes
And shoot you're stolen guns
Jewel thief, you and I
Are gonna be best friends

You've got a million horses at your door
You've got a feeling that you'll need a million more
I got a million horses of my own
In the evening, one by one, they carry me home
They carry me home
They carry me home
They carry me home
