Lyrics Wise - The Tiger Lillies

Wise

You wonder, how we’re able
With bread upon our table
To be wise
Well, crime is for the starving
So let us all get carving
We’re wise
Lock the thieves and beggars up
For them, well, we don’t give a fuck —
We’re wise
Well, crime is for the poor
And if you aren’t poor any more
You’re wise
We’re middle class and wealthy
Our bank accounts are healthy
We are wise
All the milk of human kindness
Well, we’ve put all that behind us
We are wise
Well, those beggars, whores, and thieves
None of them fool me
We’re wise
Well, we all make a living
The strong, we don’t like giving
We’re wise
We’re… wise
