the thief is a lady
a lonely girl who maybe
knows the ways of loss from end to end
the world where she’s staying
it’s high cl-ss rules seem crazy
and she’s a low cl-ss girl who smiles and just pretends
she’s taking her time
she’s taking your cool
she’s taking your heart
while she’s taking your jewels
she’s taking tonight
she’s taking tonight
she’s taking tonight
she’s taking it all
she’s taking your mind
she’s taking it all
taking you for a ride
yeah, she’s taking tonight
she’s taking tonight
she’s taking tonight
the thief is a lady
on her mother’s grave, cried daily
and still lights a flame on sundays, at the shrine
but now she’s been staying
in a world refined and stately
where beauty hides a fierce and cruel design
she’s taking her time
she’s taking your cool
she’s taking your heart
while she’s taking your jewels
she’s taking tonight
she’s taking tonight
she’s taking tonight
she’s taking it all
she’s taking your mind
she’s taking it all
taking you for a ride
she’s taking tonight
she’s taking tonight
she’s taking tonight
in the upper cl-ss of albion, the laws are quite clear
if you’re female and divorced you have no rights to adhere
your wealth, your home, your children are all his to decide
ladies drink their tea in fear of being tossed aside
the thief has seen this very fate happen up close
man cheats, then divorces, then down his wife goes
at fifty all her money, children, world, and friends
are gone, in one brief flash, then all she knows just ends
amongst these fine ladies
word of mouth says maybe
if he decides to cast you cold aside
a thief, she can save thee
she only works for ladies
she’ll get that little nest egg he denied
she’s taking her time
she’s taking your cool
she’s taking your heart
while she’s taking your jewels, oh
she’s taking tonight
she’s taking tonight
she’s taking tonight
she’s taking it all
she’s taking your mind
she’s taking it all
taking you for a ride
she’s taking tonight
she’s taking tonight
she’s taking tonight
