THE 1975
"Robbers"
(George Daniel / Adam Hann / Matthew Healy / Ross MacDonald)

She had a face straight out a magazine
God only knows, but you'll never leave her
Her balaclava is starting to chafe
And when she gets his gun, he's begging, "Babe, stay, stay, stay, stay, stay"

I'll give him one more time
We'll give him one more fight
I said, "One more lie"
Well, I know you

Now if you never shoot, you never know
And if you never eat, you'll never grow
You've got a pretty kind of dirty face
And when she's leaving your home, she's begging you stay, stay, stay, stay, stay

I'll give him one more time
We'll give him one more fight
I said, "One more lie"
There'll be a riot, because I know you

Well, now that you've got your gun, it's much harder now the police have come
And I will shoot him if it's what you ask
But if you just take off your mask, you'll find out, everything's gone wrong

Now everybody's dead, and they're driving past my old school
He's got his gun, he's got his suit on
She says, "Babe, you look so cold, you look so cold, you look so cold"
"You look so cold"
One more time
"You look so cold"
One more fight
"You look so cold"
One more lie
Because I know you
