Cold War Kids
Robbers
[Verse 1]
Sulking
Walking 'round the city after dark
Need protection
From street toughs
Who clip the locks and rip the doors off rough
Like cowards

[Chorus]
And oh, this life of glorified
Robbing from the blind is not easy, you see
Don't think I don't know sympathy
My victims in my shadow staring back at me

[Verse 2]
Not me, I'm knockin'
Tiptoe outside a stranger's door
Casually let myself in
Fill pockets
With trinkets, purses, china, antique armoire

[Chorus]
And oh, this life of glorified
Robbing from the blind is not easy, you see
Don't think I don't know sympathy
My victims in my shadow staring back at me
[Outro]
There's robbers in my thoughts
They tell me what to think
They're hiding in my clothes
Crawling in the kitchen sink
Ba da da da da da da...
