Thief (Song)

Liner Notes:

"About a thieving git who kept trying to steal things off me. What a Moronica! The drums were played by Carl Hibbert, who recorded all of this first EP. I really liked this song, but I kept writing songs in the same key (A, I think), and by the time the end of the chorus came the vocal was so high I nearly snapped my larynx hitting it. This is where the falsetto developed, purely because I hadn't discovered capos. The hidden extra bit at the end of the EP was me messing around doing a bluesy acoustic guitar solo for some reason, which has escaped me in the mists of time."
