The first track on our 3rd EP - Sinister Insomniacs. This song was written when Jacks was carless for 9 months and really wanted to a rob a bank in order to get funds for a new car.
lyrics
I am car-less, on a Friday night
I am broke and jobless, no income in sight
I've never stolen what is not mine
but desperation, fuels my insides
Yeah
All I wanna do is rob and steal
All i wanna do is rob and steal, and steal and steal
Helpless, my shelters tight
electric invoice has stolen my lights
my fridge is empty, my cupboards bare
I've got no sugar, for neighbors to spare
Yeah
All I wanna do is rob and steal
All I wanna do is rob and steal, and steal and steal
Wreak-less and we cause fright
We're armed and ready to join the good fight
I am here to take back all of the fines
The bills, the payments, my wasted time
Yeah
All I wanna do is rob and steal
All I wanna do is rob and steal, and steal, and steal
This is for anybody who really wants to rob a bank
who wants to stay home all day long and not work
this is for anybody who thinks their boss is a jerk
this is for everybody who wants to stay home
and smoke pot and drink beer and have sex
every hour of every day.
This is for the skateboarding, gun slinging graffiti artist who has no time for art.
You go out and you rob that bank, and you do it in the name of
Left in the fucking Attic.
All I wanna do is rob and steal
All I wanna do is rob and steal, and steal, and steal.
