The Thief Lyrics

Why must I be the thief?
Why must I be the thief?
Oh Lord please won't you tell me,
Why must I be the thief.

Why must I be the thief
He said to the hanging man
And how come you're the only one
That's black around, that always stares

Why must I be the thief
He asked of the hanging man
And how come you're the only one
Who lived with an open hand
Now why must I be the thief
You've cursed with many clouds
And the hanging man without his hand
Looked beyond his heart

The thief was drawn to the cross
To share that other's fateRadiohead - The Thief - http://motolyrics.com/radiohead/the-thief-lyrics.html
But the Jesus man said â??Not nowâ?
â??My brother not now, it's far too lateâ?
(far too late) (7x)

Do what you must
Take what you can
Steal the pride from every heart,
Every angered man (3x)
I am the thief
I am the thief
And you will run
Yes and you will hide
But I'll get you then
Yes I will
Because of you, because it's justified.
I will get you yet
Cause it's justified
I will get you yet
It's justified
I will get you yet
It's justified
