Code of a Gentleman Thief

I am not made of what makes a man what he is
I don't fight, argue or even debate
My talents are lying, cheating and stealing
They are my best qualities, you might say
you might think that ***** but it's what makes me

Lying can be an amazing tool in the right hands
Along with innocent or even pathetic looks

Cheating, well that is a hard one
it should only be used on a great evil
maybe a old enemy
a bullie from times for distant
but still remembered

And stealing my personal favorite

well....

It beats working for your bread
