"Cops & Robbers" lyrics

"Cops & Robbers"

The time is running out, the pressure's building up
They say they're working fast, but fast ain't fast enough
We tried debating, but they just don't give a fuck
A volcano lying dormant will always erupt
Don't wanna listen and they don't wanna look
They call us thugs, so I guess I'll call them crooks
I like to think of us as more like Robin Hood
We're only taking back what they already took

(Ah) Leaving in their spaceships, martinis in the cockpit
(Ah) They don't wanna share their toys with us

No more second chances, no more time to learn
We'll be raising glasses when the witches burn
We'll play cops and robbers, cops and robbers
We'll play cops and robbers 'til the tables turn

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious
Out of sight is out of mind, so chuck it in the oceans
Pillage and they burn it and they bend it 'til it's broken
And then they wonder why we're causing a commotion

(Ah) Burning up the ozone, E.T. finally goes home
(Ah) They don't wanna share their toys with us

No more second chances, no more time to learn
We'll be raising glasses when the witches burn
We'll play cops and robbers, cops and robbers
We'll play cops and robbers 'til the tables turn
We'll play cops and robbers, cops and robbers
We'll play cops and robbers 'til the tables turn

The time is running out, the pressure's building up
They say they're working fast, but fast ain't fast enough
We tried debating, but they just don't give a fuck
A volcano lying dormant will always erupt

No more second chances, no more time to learn
We'll be raising glasses when the witches burn
We'll play cops and robbers, cops and robbers
We'll play cops and robbers 'til the tables turn
We'll play cops and robbers, cops and robbers
We'll play cops and robbers 'til the tables turn
