lyrics

Late at night when the crowds are gone
I'm in the museum all alone
I see the guards but I have no fear
I'm going home with a souvenir

I'm an art thief

I will steal your Vermeer
Take it far away from here
I'll steal your Caravaggio
Put it in my Van and Gogh

I'm an art thief

I got more busts than a palace hall
I got more nudes than a frathouse wall
I'm in a different country every week
I lead a life of suave mystique

I got some Roman and I got some Grecian
I got some Warhol and I got some Titian
And just for fun one night in Greece
I stole a mosaic piece by piece

There's no alarm that can make me afraid
There is no laser beam I can't evade
The only thing in my life that's hard
Picking the art for my Christmas card

I got a Jaguar that's long and sleek
A different passport for every week
I love going to work each day
It's long hours but it's great Monet

I took the Mona Lisa on a date
Brought her in a couple hours late
Well you see I got the magic touch
Now you know why she smiles so much

I'm an art thief
Dig my black turtleneck
