“Shoplifter” was a bonus track on the album American Idiot, and a B-side to the title track’s single. Given it’s an outtake, the lyrics about a crook who likes to take supplies with a five-finger discount are probably unrelated to the concept album’s story.
Shoplifter Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Shoplifter, you'll never learn
When you commit the crime
Shoplifter, you're getting burned
And now you got to do the time
[Verse 2]
It's a 1,2,3 on the felony
Well, not everything is free
Now that you serve the community
It's the life of a petty thief
[Chorus]
It's not considered stealing
Unless you're getting caught
But you'll be caught stealing
Trying to take something you haven't got
[Verse 3]
Shoplifter, you'll never learn
What lies behind your back
Not a burglar or a bank robber
Just some kleptomaniac
Attention!
[Chorus]
It's not considered stealing
Unless you're getting caught
But you've been caught stealing
Trying to take something you haven't got
[Verse 1]
Shoplifter, you'll never learn
When you commit the crime
Shoplifter, you're getting burned
And now you got to do the time
And now you got to do the time
And now you got to do some time
