Lyrics Morcheeba – Daylight Robbery
Text:
The heavy gangster helps himself
Don’t have time for no one else
Brittle bones and rotten veins
Celebrate ill-gotten gains
No time for justice
Or sweetness and light
How does he thrust his weakness aside?
The grass is hissing to disallow
This misappropriation now
Hold up! That’s daylight robbery
Hold up! You’re bleeding us dry
Hold up! You’re making a mockery
Hold up! Disorganised crime
Send men to hunt them and bring them to trial
No room to function with dogs running wild
Holding us hostage, spreading your germs
Rebellious rich kids with money to burn
Hold up! That’s daylight robbery
Hold up! You’re bleeding us dry
Hold up! You’re making a mockery
Hold up! Disorganised crime
Kiss it goodbye
Hold up! That’s daylight robbery
Hold up! He’s bleeding you dry
Hold up! You’re making a mockery
Hold up! Disorganised crime
Hold up! That’s daylight robbery
Hold up! You’re bleeding us dry
Hold up! You’re making a mockery
Hold up! Disorganised crime
Kiss it goodbye
And crawl up and die
