Me and a couple friends we had a big idea[00:00:01]

About getting money and getting out of here [00:00:03]

We were wide-eyed dreamers of wealth [00:00:06]

We were getting tired of killing time[00:00:13]

Filling up our heads with cheap wine [00:00:16]

Jerry had a van so we could make our escape [00:00:18]

He would say 'boys our time[00:00:23]

Has come to live among the privileged ones' [00:00:26]

Now it was jerry's plan but we all agreed[00:00:49]

Skip town and split the money up evenly [00:00:51]

Lay low 'til the winter rolled in [00:00:54]

He said "i know an old farmer[00:01:01]

Doesn't trust the bank[00:01:02]

Keeps his money buried out[00:01:03]

Behind his water tank [00:01:05]

He told me once when[00:01:06]

He was out of his mind" [00:01:08]

'Oh boys our time has come to[00:01:11]

Live among the privileged ones'[00:01:18]

Now jerry had a girl the only one of us[00:01:37]

To ever have one last[00:01:40]

And so no questions asked[00:01:41]

She'd be the fourth one involved [00:01:43]

Her name was mary-anne[00:01:48]

And she was nice enough [00:01:50]

Always a cashier only once in love[00:01:51]

With jerry - the dreamer and the clerk [00:01:55]

Who said 'boys our time has[00:01:59]

Come to live among the privileged ones' [00:02:03]

So on that friday night on[00:02:36]

Which we all agreed[00:02:38]

We took our shovels[00:02:39]

And crept out carefully[00:02:40]

Through the farmyard darker than sin [00:02:42]

The plan went off without a hitch[00:02:49]

'Til we passed the chicken[00:02:51]

Coop and mary tripped[00:02:53]

Turned the hens to sirens in the night [00:02:54]

And when the farmhouse lights turned on [00:03:00]

A warning shot rang out into the dawn [00:03:06]

And we ran like hell for jerry's van [00:03:18]

But when we arrived we were only three [00:03:24]

And while jerry's greed fed gas to the engine [00:03:30]

His words showed us a coward we'd never seen [00:03:36]

As he said "boys our time has come [00:03:41]

We're going to save ourselves and[00:03:48]

Live among the privileged ones "[00:03:50]
