PETTY (THIEF) LOUT Lyrics

Artist: The Fall
Album: This Nation's Saving Grace

Up the drain pipe
Rapid he did sprout
[Grey templates on us] he had to inflict
TV documentary that it produced

When he whistled in the street
The men would turn around in fear
Of being thought effete

Petty thief lout

Up the drain pipe
Rapid he did sprout
Crime

Hides records in his drawer at home
Especially when they are rare
Never gives 'em out to every Tom Dick & Harry
Who stole before from petty thief lout

Un the drain pipe
Rapid he did sprout
[Grey templates on us] he had to inflict

Suburbia holds
more than you care for

One must make sure
When leaving the house
Never to have white powder on the nose about

F-prints
F-prints on the fingers
Sprout

Great tempus onus
Suburbia holds more than you care for

Petty thief lout
