The Best Jewel Thief in the World lyrics
Masked and dressed in black
You scramble over rooftops
Carrying a bag, a bag marked swag
You’re the best jewel thief in the world
Vigilance is lax
Security complacent
Adjacent to the gem, a diadem of pearl
Is the best jewel thief in the world
Watch your legend grow
The rooftops are for dreamers
You strike and then return Lucerne–Heathrow
The best jewel thief in the world
Down below, down below
What do any of those losers know?
Down below, down below
What do any of those assholes know?
Even so, even so
Be a Buddhist boy and let it go
Even so, even so
Be a Catholic boy and let it go
You’re the best jewel thief in the world
Sirens moan and drone and groan
But Interpol can’t catch you
The cameras always show a screen of snow
Ergo, you’re the best jewel thief in the world
Down below, down below
What do any of those losers know?
Down below, down below
What do any of those assholes know?
Even so, even so
Be a Buddhist boy and let it go
Even so, even so
Be a Catholic boy and let it go
You’re the best jewel thief in the world
Nimble as a cat
They hope your luck deserts you
They’re sharpening their knives, but you have nine lives
You’re the best jewel thief in the world
Watch your legend grow
Watch your legend grow
Watch your legend grow
You’re the best jewel thief in the world
