Shoplifter, you'll never learn   When you commit the crime   Shoplifter, you're getting burned   And now you gotta do the time      It's a 1 2 3 on the felony   Well, not everything is free   Now that you served the community   It's the life of a petty thief      It's not considered stealing   Unless you're getting caught   But it isn't called stealing   Tryin' to take something you haven't got      Shoplifter, you'll never learn   What lies behind your back   Not a burglar or a bank robber   Just a kleptomaniac      It's not considered stealing   Unless you're getting caught   But Jimmy caught stealing   Tryin' to take something you haven't got      Shoplifter, you'll never learn   When you commit the crime   Shoplifter, you're gettin' burned   And now you gotta do the time   Oh, now you gotta do the time   Oh, now you gotta do some time
