Testo It Takes a Thief - Coolio
Testo della canzone It Takes a Thief (Coolio), tratta dall'album Greatest Hits
One dark night I need some ends
I got a spot cased out, I'm breakin' in
I got a cutter that'll cut through your window like butter
Suction cup, window up
Now I'm on the inside lookin' for some loot
.38 Special, I don't wanna have to shoot
I ain't no young, raw, fresh recruit
Steel-toed boots, black khaki suit
A real quick search and nobody's home
Just like I planned, now I'm home alone
I hope you don't mind if I use the phone
And fix me something to eat before I'm gone
I got the silver and the china, deuce-five and the nine
Rolex off the desk so I can tell the time
No one knows where the flow goes when the door's closed
You better take some NoDoz
Now I'm out the back with a sack full of goods
Throw it in the truck, take it back to the hood
Let me be brief, I'm on the creep
I stole the sounds out your jeep, it takes a thief
Oh yeah, it takes a thief
Yeah, yeah, it takes a thief
Hell yeah, it takes a thief
Keep both eyes open when you go to sleep
Oh yeah, it takes a thief
Yeah, yeah, it takes a thief
It takes a motherfuckin' thief, it takes a thief
Keep your hand on your gun when I'm on the creep
I need a lick real quick like my mind ain't wrapped tight
I scare like Mike Tye so call this Fright Night
You don't wanna see me comin' down the
Street when I'm broke and it's dark
So run your motherfuckin' pockets '
Fore they find your ass dead in the park
Put your hands behind your head and interlock your fingers
No, I ain't the cops, I just want your wallet and your watch
And your ring and your fat gold chain
Don't try nothin' strange or I'm blowin' out your brain
I rob from the rich so I can get rich
I ain't got shit so I take what I can get
I need my mail, my snaps, my dollars, my ends
My grip ain't high enough so I'm robbin' all my friends
Somebody out there's out to get me
The smaller the nigga, the bigger the gat be
I don't give a fuck about your pain and your grief
You shouldn't have fell asleep, it takes a thief
Oh yeah, it takes a thief
Yeah, yeah, it takes a thief
Hell yeah, it takes a thief
Keep both eyes open when you go to sleep
Oh yeah, it takes a thief
Yeah, yeah, it takes a thief
It takes a motherfuckin' thief, it takes a thief
Keep your hand on your gun when I'm on the creep
There's a buster on the west side, I heard he got a grip
And he's out of town on business so I'm schemin' on his shit
I heard he got keys and G's and deeds and guns
And big trash bags full of weed
I stole a brand new fresh-ass telephone van
So now I guess I'm a telephone man
The bathroom window ain't got no alarm
I got a skeleton brick that works like a charm
It didn't take long to find what I was lookin' for
I was damn near finished when I heard a key in the door
I jumped in the closet and checked my clip
Pulled my ski mask down, I can't believe this shit
I counted to five and the front door opened up
I counted three more and the front door was shut
I counted five more just to give me some space
Then I jumped out the closet and bust him in the face
I loaded up the van in broad daylight
'Cause looky-loos had they high beams on that night
I take the back streets to avoid the heat
And never let 'em see me sweat, it takes a thief
Oh yeah, it takes a thief
Yeah, yeah, it takes a thief
Hell yeah, it takes a thief
Keep both eyes open when you go to sleep
Oh yeah, it takes a thief
Yeah, yeah, it takes a thief
It takes a motherfuckin' thief, it takes a thief
Keep your hand on your gun when I'm on the creep
Oh yeah
Yeah, yeah
Hell yeah
Oh yeah
Yeah, yeah
It takes a motherfuckin' thief
