Zee Avi - First Of The Gang Lyrics






You have never been in love,
Until you've seen the stars,
Reflect in the reservoirs

And you have never been in love,
Until you've seen the dawn rise,
Behind the home for the blind

We are the pretty petty thieves,
And you’re standing on our street..

...where Hector was the first of the gang
With a gun in his hand
And the first to do time
The first of the gang to die. Oh my.
Hector was the first of the gang
With a gun in his hand
And the first to do time
The first of the gang to die. Oh my.

You have never been in love,
Until you've seen the sunlight thrown
Over smashed human bones

We are the pretty petty thieves,
And you're standing on our street..

...where Hector was the first of the gang
With a gun in his hand
And the first to do time
The first of the gang to die. Such a silly boy.
Hector was the first of the gang
With a gun in his hand
And a bullet in his gullet
And the first lost lad to go under the sod.

And he stole from the rich and the poor
And the not-very-rich and the very poor
And he stole all hearts away
He stole all hearts away
He stole all hearts away
He stole all hearts away

  1. B.... H....

    I like it. It bothers me when people say, um, say That's Entertainment, "oh the jam is much better than Mozs' cover of it" I didn't know it was a contest more of a respect thing I thought

  2. N.... W....

    Eat your heart out, Colbie Caillat, and the 200 others female singers who sound just like this. This was bad in 2009. Even worse now. Cheer up!

  3. D.... N....

    Aku cinta pada mu. N i love u

  4. d.... ....

    The only thing that could make this worse would be a ukulele

  5. D.... S....

    best. 2018 :D

  6. T.... F....

    Oh look a slowed down version of a song with a girl singing it in "that" voice. Yawn. So over done now.

    T.... F....

    The Fakey Cake Maker this was made in 2009 lol

  7. F.... ....

    Better than the original :)

  8. j.... g....

    Great cover.

  9. E.... T....

    Lovely... a whole new song, as a decent cover must be

  10. T.... ....

    dont like at the first time i hear it ... now i think is a kinda good.

    T.... ....

    Sometimes it takes a minute for something to grow on you, but once it does it's kinda game over and a new great love for an artist is born.

  11. M.... S....

    its an odd paring of a voice and style with the content of this song. Reminds me of covers of Leonard Cohen songs with beautiful voices. Sounds almost robo sung.

  12. �.... ....

    聽了會讓人忘卻所有煩惱的歌聲,超喜歡的~感謝有妳。

  13. R.... C....

    such a great song and such a great cover!

  14. M.... ....

    Y*A*R*R*A*K G*İ*B*İ 

  15. B.... ....

    Technically very good, great voice etc..... but a bit bland for me. Lacks any kind of flair or attitude, so hard to appreciate in comparison to Morrissey.
    But she seems like a great singer.

  16. Y.... H....

    好迷人的聲音

  17. J.... ....

    She is as smooth as the wind blows. I suggest looking her up on the NPR Music Tiny Desk Concerts.

  18. K.... ....

    classic Schmosby

  19. s.... ....

    this is amazing...and im usually very critical of Morrissey/Smiths covers

  20. A.... J....

    Wow, I really love Morrissey, but this is totally diggable.
