I said the joker is a wanted man
He makes his way all across the land
See him sifting through the sand
So I'll tell you all the story
About the joker and the thief of the night

Always laughing in the midst of power
Always living in the final hour
There is always sweet in sour
So we are not goin' home

Can you see the joker flying over?
As she's standing in the field of clover
Watching out everyday
I wonder what would happen if he took her away

What you see, well, you might not know,
You get the feelin' comin' after the glow,
The vagabond is moving slow
So I'll tell you all the story
'Bout the joker and the thief of the night.

All the people that he see in the night
Hold their dreams up to the light
The wildabeast is setting her sight
We are not goin' home

Can you see the joker flying over?
As she's standing in the field of clover
Watching out everyday
I wonder what would happen if he took her away

I said the joker is a wanted man
He makes his way all across the land
See him sifting through the sand
So I'll tell you the story
'Bout the the joker and the thief
I said I'll tell you the story
'Bout the the joker and the thief
I said I'll tell you the story
'Bout the the joker and the thief of the night
