Compulsive Gamblers - Two thieves lyrics

One was from the east the other from the west And I don't claim to know either one of them's the best But I know an angle man when I see one Your humour just as black as the bruises on your arms What you lacked in sk**s you made up for with your charms You said it was just some new infection Chorus: But if the two of you had met both your mothers would have wept Two peas in a pod or just two thieves On the nod You stole your education while the students were asleep You laughed at history up in blankets and sank it in the deep You said what's saved was worth perfection You were my amba**ador to a world that didn't care Bad luck on your side mirrored shades and dirty hair When I look all I see is my own reflection Chorus Well they twitched and they winked You would show me we are thick as thieves But you empty out my wallet and my ashtray as you leave Did you forget that I was your only friend ? Two months on the road and I don't know how to say good bye Maybe I should burry all those memories of you But I don't ever want to see them die Chorus
