The Right People Lyrics by Ian Dury

Apples

0

People think it's easy being a crook
But I got done for everything I took
There's people who could keep you out of schtuck
But you've had it if you don't know where to look
People think it's easy being a thief
But all my majoir tickles came to grief
The only way your talent is revealed
Is working with the top men in their field
It's hard to find the right people
It's hard to find the right people
It's hard to find the right people
People think you've only got to ask
Turn up with your crowbar and your mask
"Good morning, I'm a burglar. What's the haps?"
Well, you've had it if you haven't met the chaps
It's hard to find the right people
It's hard to find the right people
It's hard to find the right people
It's hard to find the right people
It's hard to find the right people
It's hard to find the right people
It's hard to find the right people...
