[Chorus]
D7Stealing Gfood, stealing food
Stealing Cfood, food, Gfood
Eating Cwhat belongs to Dothers puts me Gin a good G7mood
Though my Cfriends say that I Dshouldn’t,
There is Gnothing that I E7wouldn’t steal.
AmFood, Cfood, Dfood, D/F#food, Gfood!!
[Verse]
I’m a Emveritable gastronomic Amkleptomaniac
While my Bfriends are having dinner is when EmI like to attack
I say Am“look, what’s that beDhind you?” and they Gturn around to E7see
Then I Amfinish what they’re eating, and I Dsay “it wasn’t D7me.”
[Chorus]
D7Stealing Gfood, stealing food
Stealing Cfood, food, Gfood
CheefiCng chips and pinDching pringles Gputs me in G7a good mood
Food is sCo much more delicioDus
If my frGiends are all sE7uspicious!
Stealing fAmood, fCood, fDood, fD/F#ood, Gfood!!
[Verse]
Now, Emthe most efficient way Amto satisfy your appetite
Is to eaBt from your friends’ cupboards in Emthe middle of the night
But nAmo matter if you’re temDpted; you should neGver take the loE7t
Leave Amthe packaging behind; remind them Dwhat they havenD7’t got.
