The Sugarcubes - Theft

Björk
Man put out his head and looked at me
I put him, put him underneath my shirt
now he's scratching in bus number 12
I sit in the back and cough all the time

My bedroom is at the end of the corridore
where I listen to cassettes and especially loud tonight
so nobody hears him - he's mine, mine, mine, mine, mine
I'm gonna keep him underneath my bed

Já já - he'll be loved here
Já já - could have kept him

Einar
Behind these bloodstains - she tucked me into darkness
I didn't know where I was - or where I was going
I got scared - this was my first time - away from home

I started to claw - claw and scratch
wanted to escape - her grip was firm
she won't let me go - she took me away
she took me away - she took me away

Björk
Já já - he'll be loved here
Já já - could have kept him
Já já - he'll be loved here
Já já - could have kept him

Einar
Her grip was firm - she would not let
let me go - but she gave me - a good home
She took me away

Björk
Já já - he'll be loved here

Einar
Got a new - new home
