Robber

Robber - The Weather Station/Tamara Lindeman

Composed by：Tamara Lindeman

I never believed in the robber

I never saw nobody climb over my fence

No black bag no gloved hand

I never believed in the robber

I figured everything he took was gone

Nothing to do nothing to be done

I never believed in the robber

No I never believed in the robber

You never believed in the robber

You thought a robber must hate you

To wanna take from you

The robber don't hate you

You never believed in the robber

But the robber never believed in you

You're two halves of the same piece

Divided into two

No the robber don't hate you

No the robber don't hate you

He had permission

Permission by words

Permission of thanks

Permission by laws

Permission of banks

White table cloth dinners

Convention centers it was all done real carefully

Make real imagination make unreal

That which can be taken

Turn your gaze from the window's light

Turn your attention to this sharp knife

I never believed in the robber

When I was young I learned how to make

Love to the robber

To dance with the other

To wring from his hand the touch of a lover

I never believed in the robber

Nobody taught me nothing was mine if nothing was mine

Then taking was all there was

Looting at dawn looting at dusk

Hold open the gates for the want of lust

All I saw was the dust kicked up
