Lyrics Crooks - New Killer Shoes

Crooks

‘Cos everybody looks like crooks in the heat
and when you get exposed their double faces wanna meet
I’m sorry if I never seem to look at you and say
Whatever you just said ‘cos it went out the other way
And everybody looks like crooks when you’re down
But when they come around they’re in denials at the ground
I’m sorry if I never seem to look at you and hear
Whatever you just said ‘cos it went out the other ear
He ran away now
‘cos anybody looks real mad when they’re down
but when you’re doing good all they seem to do is frown
excuse me if I never seem to hear what you just said
I’d rather live my life than have you fucking up my head now
He ran away now
‘cos I was always pushed aside
and there is no such thing as pride
mine comes when you arrive
and that’s where I get pride (from a dickhead)
I’m staying alive
Stay alive and see my time
People act so strange when they see that you wanna change
It’s just the same old clowns
All they wanna do is bring you down
He ran away now
Stay alive and watch me shine
Stay alive and watch my time
Oh
I’m staying alive
