6. Honest Thieves

Honest Thieves- A parody of "Good Monsters" by Jars of Clay

V1

All honest thieves hate and despise
The things that weigh you down, spell your demise,
And the people saying, "I..I..I.."

Do you know where we are?
Do you know where we are?

V2

Our alliance waits in the street,
And strolls at night, with silent feet,
And the game makes it real, not a lie.

Do you know where we are?
Do you know where we are?

Chorus1

We are lord of everything we stole.
Do you know where we are?
Do you know where we are?
Not all thieves are liars.
The ones who are honest
Would use what they could just to do what they should.

V3

All honest thieves battle their pain.
They prance about the Book Of Names.
They take all of your ritzy toys
While all of their eyes are turned away.
You know there's nothing simple in this play
About the just desserts of misery.

Do you know where we are?
Do you know where we are?

Chorus 2

We are lord of everything we stole.
We are storms of everything but love, but love.

Bridge

Where wood and snow are commonplace,
Yuffies never show their face.
Our world rearranges, our world rearranges
By itself.

Chorus 3

We are lord of everything we stole.
Do you know where we are?
'Cause I am, I'm so in love with myself.

We are storms of nothing else but love.
