We're l-i-i-i-i-i-i-ving in a den of thieves
Em F Am G
Rummaging for answers in the pages
Em F Am G
We're l-i-i-i-i-i-i-ving in a den of thieves

And it's contagious, and it's conagious
Em F Am G
And it's contagious, and it's conagious

We wear our scarves just like a noose
But not cause we want eternal sleep
And though our parts are slightly used
New ones are slave labour you can keep
