Sophisticated Robbery Songtext
von The Skalatones

Monday morning when I went to work
There was a man that said to me: "You small-town Jerk!
You have to leave, you have to learn
A company must be paying concern"
Tuesday morning I was on the dole
The employment exchange was a big black hole:
"You have to leave, you have to learn
A government must be paying concern"

Sophisticated Robbery


Wednesday evening my apartment was gone
I couldn′t pay the rent, the landlord went on and on:
"You have to leave, you have to learn
This is no charity so don't you return"
Thursday, Friday and Saturday too
I was sitting in the pub until half past two:
"You have to leave, you have to learn
Your credit′s no good so don't you return"

Sophisticated Robbery

Lazy Sunday I woke up in a park
There was a man that said: "Come see me after dark!
You have to believe, you have to learn
Here's my gun now it′s your turn!"
Monday morning when I went to work
Into a bank I stepped right up and said to the clerk:
"You have to believe, you have to learn
Even a small-town jerk must be paying concern!"
