Lyrics
Stole, stole

Oh, oh, stole, stole

He was always such a nice boy

The quiet one, with good intentions

He was down for his brother, respectful to his mother

A good boy

But good don't get attention

One kid with a promise

The brightest kid in school, he's not a fool

Readin' books about science and smart stuff

It's not enough, no

'Cause smart don't make you cool, whoa

He's not invisible anymore

With his Father's nine and a broken fuse

Since he walked through that classroom door

He's all over prime-time news

Mary's got the same size hands as Marilyn Monroe

She put her fingers in the imprints

At Mann's Chinese Theater Show

She could’ve been a movie star

Never got the chance to go that far

Her life was stole, oh

Now we'll never know

(No, no, no, no, no, stole, stole, oh)

They were cryin' to the camera, said he never fitted in

He wasn't welcome

He showed up to the parties we was hangin' in

Some guys were puttin' him down

Bullyin' him 'round, round

Now I wish I would’ve talked to him

Gave him the time of day and not turned away

If I would’ve been the one to maybe go this far

He might have stayed at home

Playin' angry chords on his guitar

He's not invisible anymore

With his baggy pants and his legs in chains

Since he walked through that classroom door

Everybody knows his name

Mary's got the same size hands (Oh) as Marilyn Monroe

She put her fingers in the imprints (Ooh)

At Mann's Chinese Theater Show (She could've been a movie star)

She could've been a movie star (Oh-oh-oh)

Never got the chance to go that far (Oh)

Her life was stole, oh

Now we'll never know (Now we'll never know, oh)

Greg was always getting net from twenty feet away

(Twenty feet away)

He had a tryout with the Sixers, couldn't wait for Saturday (Saturday)

Now we're never gonna see him slam

Flyin' high as Kobe can

His life was stole, oh

Now we'll never know (Now we'll never, never, never know),

Mm, now we'll never, never, never, never know

Stole, stole, stole

Stole, stole, stole, stole

Ooh-oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Mary's got the same size hands as Marilyn Monroe (Oh-oh)

She put her fingers in the imprints

At Mann's Chinese Theater Show (She was gonna be a star, oh no)

She could’ve been a movie star

Never got the chance to go that far (Never got the chance, yeah)

Her life was stole, oh (Stole, stole)

Oh, now we'll never know (Now we'll never never know, no)

Greg was always getting net from twenty feet away (He had game, oh)

He had a tryout with the Sixers, couldn't wait for Saturday

Now we're never gonna see him slam (Never see him)

Flyin' high as Kobe can

His life was stole, oh

Now we'll never know (Now we'll never never know, no)

Oh, no, no, no

Yeah, their lives were stole

Now we'll never know (Stole, stole, stole)

We were here all together, yesterday

(Stole, stole, stole)
