Intro: x4
Once there was a crooked man, living in the shadows
Made a living pilfering, anything the wind blew in
Now he s turning on the charm, working for the counting house
Now he is an honest thief, winning smile, perfect teeth
Chorus:
Criminals in pinstripe suits, pecking the flesh from our backbones
Criminals in pinstripe suits, that s the way your money goes
Criminals in pinstripe suits, pecking the flesh from our backbones
Criminals in pinstripe suits, that s the way your money goes
x4
Once there was a crooked man, spouting all about one for all
Watching all our wages fall, holding tight to his bonus ball
Now he s turning on the charm, in the bank that we restored
Now he sits on his fat arse, selling the dreams we can t afford
Chorus:
Criminals in pinstripe suits, pecking the flesh from our backbones
Criminals in pinstripe suits, that s the way your money goes
Criminals in pinstripe suits, pecking the flesh from our backbones
Criminals in pinstripe suits, that s the way your money goes
x8
Once there was a crooked man, living in the shadows
Made a living pilfering, anything the wind blew in
Now he s turning on the charm, working for the counting house
Now he is an honest thief, winning smile, perfect teeth
Chorus:
Criminals in pinstripe suits, pecking the flesh from our backbones
Criminals in pinstripe suits, that s the way your money goes
Criminals in pinstripe suits, pecking the flesh from our backbones
Criminals in pinstripe suits, that s the way your money goes
x 2
That s the way your money goes
