Testo Thick As Thieves - The Jam

Testo della canzone Thick As Thieves (The Jam), tratta dall'album Setting Sons (Deluxe)

Times were so tough
But not as tough as they are now
We were so close
And nothing came between us
Or the world
No personal situations
Thick as thieves us
We'd stick together for all time
And we meant it
But it turns out
Just for a while
We stole the friendship
That bound us together
We stole from the schools
And their libraries
We stole from the drugs
That sent us to sleep
We stole from the drink
That made us sick
We stole anything
That we couldn't keep
And it was enough
We didn't have to spoil anything
And always be as thick as thieves
Like a perfect stranger
You came into my life
Then like the perfect Lone Ranger
You rode away
Run away
Run away
Run away
We stole the love from young girls
In ivory towers
We stole autumn leaves
And summer showers
We stole the silent wind
That says you are free
We stole everything
That we could see
But it wasn't enough
And now we've gone and spoiled everything
Now we're no longer as thick as thieves
You came into my life
Then like a perfect stranger
You walked away
Walked away
Walked away
Walked away
Thick as thieves us
We'd stick together for all time
And we meant it
But it turns out
Just for a while
We stole the friendship that bound us together
We stole the burning sun
In the open sky
We stole the twinkling stars
In the black night
We stole the green-belt fields
That made us believe
We stole everything
That we could see
But something came along that changed our minds
And I don't know what
And I don't know why
But we seemed to grow up
In a flash of time
While we watched our ideals
Helplessly unwind
And we're no longer as thick as thieves
No
We're not as thick
As we used to be
No
We're no longer
As thick as thieves
No
We're not as thick
As we used to be
No
It wasn't enough
And now we've gone and spoiled everything
Now we're no longer
As thick as thieves
