The Lyrics

Answer to "Stealing Stuff at Sears."
I got stuff I'm stealing
deep inside my coat.
Girl, I didn't realize
that's all they wrote.

When they hold me
in the precinct house
they let me know
that I'm such a louse.

I...
I'm hooked on the stealing.
Arrested and reeling.
Check these mug shots of me!

Lift those bars of candy.
That VCR looks fine.
Cameras catch me and that's why
I'm gonna weep and whine!

Yes, I'm a crime-wave ryder
but I don't need a cure.
I'll just call Winona
and hire her lawyer.

All the good stuff
that I tried to sneak
stackin' up, girl
yeah, I'm such a freak.

I...
I'm hooked on the stealing.
Arrested and reeling.
Check these mug shots of me!

(instrumental break)

All the good stuff
that I tried to sneak
stackin' up, girl
yeah, I'm such a freak.

I...
I'm hooked on the stealing.
Arrested and reeling.
Check these mug shots of me!

The Winona verse is truly inspired. I'd forgotten about her ganking escapade way back when. Here's 3 five finger discount votes for a job well done.

Sorry about "stealing" your title but the theme of the parody is stealing. This will make better sense after the next round of amiright parodies is published.

The author of the parody has authorized comments, and wants YOUR feedback.
