Bandits - Midlake

Did you ever want to be overrun by bandits;

To hand over all of your things and start over new?

While we were out hunting for food

Our house was being robbed

I caught an apple and she caught a fox

So I caught a rabbit but she caught an ox

So upon our return, we found everything gone

Which for us was no loss

We started over

With a rabbit and an ox

So they came down from the north

Carrying all they owned

With a basket full of food and clothes

They were stopped by a weekend raid

Traveling the woods one day

They tried to put up a fight, but lost

So we asked for them to stay

With us on their way

To have a drink and rest

And regain their strength

Did you ever want to run around with bandits;

To see many places and hide in ditches?

It’s not always easy, it’s not always easy

When the winter comes and the greenery goes

We will make some shelter

When the winter comes and the greenery goes

We will make some shelter
