Force of Habit

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Can't overcome it, it's what I do best I'll pick your pocket for your last red cent It's a disease, I'm stricken like the rest Never return anything I'm lent It wasn't me, yeah, you know it wasn't me It must've been someone who looked like me Innocent until proven guilty and you ain't got a thing on me [Pre-Chorus] Your possessions, your worldly possessions Mean more to me than your protective obsessions You wanna hide 'em, lock 'em up inside and Throw away the key so I can't find 'em Well it's a shame, it's a god-damned shame I'm the culprit but you're the one to blame I'll take another lesson from my mother It's better to take than get took [Chorus] Steal a dollar, steal a dime Force of habit will hit you every time In your pockets, invade your space Force of habit, anytime or anyplace Pay attention, keep an eye on all your cash Force of habit will deprive you of your stash If I do it, yeah, if I get caught Force of habit is the problem that I got [Guitar Solo] [Verse 2] Mama told me, "Look, but don't touch." But that only made me want it more It doesn't matter if you're a friend or foe 'Cause your house is my candy store I admit, I know I got a problem But temptation is controlling me I can't resist a five-fingered discount Everything for me is free [Pre-Chorus] Your possessions, your worldly possessions Mean more to me than your protective obsessions You wanna hide 'em, lock 'em up inside and Throw away the key so I can't find 'em It's a shame, it's a god-damned shame I'm the culprit but you're the one to blame I'll take another lesson from my mother It's better to take than get took [Chorus] Steal a dollar, steal a dime Force of habit will hit you every time In your pockets, invade your space Force of habit, anytime or anyplace Pay attention, keep an eye on all your cash Force of habit will deprive you of your stash If I do it, yeah, if I get caught Force of habit is the problem that I got The problem that I got Yeah
