We are happy-go-lucky Johnny-come-latelys Millionaire beach boys in ten-cent shirts And our pictures are in all the papers We stole a stone, for what it’s worth
We are jewel thieves But we’re such great guys That it’s hard to believe We’re so handsome they’ll pay the ransom
We came in through an open window Above suspicion, behind closed doors We were double-crossed and we should have stayed single But we messed around with square broads
We are jewel thieves With our hands In our pockets And our hearts on our sleeves But when we were arrested we were bare-chested
Simple Simon says: Put your hands in the air Give back the diamond We know it’s here somewhere You’ve committed a crime And you’re smiling like you don’t care
