the magic stealers


Empty coffers why worry?
The thieves will steal in the night
When everyone falls asleep
The creative accounting rules
The authorities can't sing

The partners will wait
Sun or moon or rain
They will stand there
People call them fools
Selling their souls

The glow of wealth
The money wagons roll in
The laughter in the night
As the crooks take away
Leaving the empty coffers

The people aren't laughing
They have been conned for ages
Once more they don't see it
They think they know everything
Dreaming of the good life
