Lyrics One Jump Ahead

Gotta keep
One jump ahead of the bread line
One swing ahead of the sword
I steal only what I can't afford
And that's everything

One jump ahead of the law man
That's all and that's no joke
These guys don't appreciate I'm broke

Riff raff
Street rat
Scoundrel
Take that

Just a little snack guys
Rip him open take it back guys

I can take the hint
Gotta face the facts
You're my only friend Abu

Who?
Oh, it's sad Aladdin's hit the bottom
He's become a one man rise in crime
I'd blame parents except he hasn't got em

Gotta eat to live
Gotta steal to eat
Tell you all about it when I got the time

One jump ahead of the slow pokes
One skip ahead of my doom
Next time gonna use a nom de plume
One jump ahead of the hitman
One hit ahead of the flock
I think I'll take a stroll around the block

Stop theif
Vandal
Outrage
Scandal

Let's not be too hasty
Still I think he's rather tasty

Gotta eat to live
Gotta steal to eat
Otherwise we'd get along
Wrong!

One jump ahead of the hoofbeats
(riff raff)
One hop ahead of the hump
(street rat)
One trick ahead of disaster
(scoundrel)
They're quick but I'm much faster
(take that)
Here goes
Better throw my hand and
Wish me happy landing
All I gotta do is jump.........
