| | |(Los Angeles, you are too hot) | ||
You have never been in love | |||
Until you've seen the stars | |||
Reflect in the reservoirs | |||
And you have never been in love | |||
Until you've seen the dawn rise | |||
Behind the Home For The Blind | |||
We are the Pretty Petty Thieves | |||
And you're standing on our streets | |||
Where Hector was the first of the gang | |||
With a gun in his hand | |||
And the first to do time | |||
The first of the gang to die | |||
Oh my | |||
Hector was the first of the gang | |||
With a gun in his hand | |||
And the first to do time | |||
The first of the gang to die | |||
Oh my | |||
You have never been in love | |||
Until you've seen sunlight thrown | |||
Over smashed human bone | |||
We are the Pretty Petty Thieves | |||
And you're standing on our streets | |||
Where Hector was the first of the gang | |||
With a gun in his hand | |||
And the first to do time | |||
The first of the gang to die | |||
Such a silly boy | |||
Hector was the first of the gang | |||
With a gun in his hand | |||
And a bullet in his gullet | |||
The first lost lad to go under the sod | |||
And he stole from the rich and the poor | |||
And the not-very-rich | |||
And the very poor | |||
And he stole all hearts away | |||
He stole all hearts away | |||
He stole all hearts away | |||
He stole all hearts away | |||
Away | |||
He stole all hearts away | |||
He stole all hearts away | |||
Away | |||
He stole all hearts away | |||
He stole all hearts away | |||
Away | |||
