Bike thief

Freezepop · Fancy Ultra-Fresh [2004]

what is not, not to like, a shiny bike

no lock, no key, it's there for me

it's for real, I'm gonna steal a pair of wheels

FSU, now you can too



I know soon that someone else

will claim my new bike for themselves

waiting for their lucky day

to make a speedy getaway



I am a bike thief

(4x)



our friend the dane, he does the same , no lock, no chain

he rides around all over town

to travel far, without a car, he pedals hard

so join the fun, you could have one



want to get from here to there

a bike can take me anywhere

it's not mine, but I don't care

I've had enough of playing fair



I'm riding free

so come with me

we'll be carefree

say it with me



I am a bike thief

(4x)



scope it out, you'll be without the slightest doubt

you want it now, i'll show you how

go down tonite, the time is right, it's in your sights

and if you dare, it's sitting there



I know soon that someone else

will claim my new bike for themselves

waiting for their lucky day

to make a speedy getaway

want to get from here to there

a bike can take me anywhere

it's not mine, but I don't care

I've had enough of playing fair



I am a bike thief

(8x)



I am a bike thief

(4x)

I am a bike thief

I am a bike - thief

I am a bike -- thief

I am a bike --- thief
