Madness - Decieves The Eye слова песни
In the earliest days of my shoplifting career,You could safely say I was filled with fear.It was nail biting work from the very start,But several quick sucesses soon gave me heart.After a while I could pick or nick or steal,Some shirts some trousers and a few lps.No-one ever stopped me, they didnt seem to care.It sometimes seemed to me that there was no-one there.Then a fine summers day my mates and me,Set off down the westend on our usual spree.Things were as normal for an hour or so,Then my nimble hands were a bit too slow.Two store detectives made a fast approach,One grabbed my jacket (youre nicked!)The other grabbed my throat.So they caught me at last, one said with joy:"youll have to do some time, my light fingered boy!"If only Id remembered my common sense,They captured me red-handed with evidence.If I go to the manager and say Im sorry,Maybe hell forgive me for my youthful folly.But what will me social worker say,If I dont come home today? Hell give me a clout!What if they dont let me out? I told him Im on me own!Dont they understand? Im from a broken home!Ill tell them Im the product of a broken home,And I always went out on my own.Was it too late to say Id pay,And Ill never steal again till the end of my days? Because I have no friends to call as such,Money and posessions I did not have much,So I started to steal in order to get by.The quickness of the hand deceives the eye.Deceives the eye the eye the eye...
