Makna lagu “Robbers” berkisah tentang hubungan cinta yang tidak sehat. Judul lagu ini bermakna “perampok” yang merujuk pada perilaku sepasang kekasih yang saling merampas kebahagiaan satu sama lain dan menyebabkan kehancuran.

Pasangan tersebut terlalu bergantung pada satu sama lain sehingga tidak menyadari kehancuran yang mereka sebabkan satu sama lain. Di lain sisi, mereka juga tidak bisa melanjutkan hidup dan bertumbuh bersama karena begitu terperangkap dalam hubungan beracun mereka.

[Verse 1]

She had a face straight out a magazine

God only knows, but you'll never leave her

Her balaclava is starting to chafe

And when she gets his gun, he's begging, "Babe, stay, stay

Stay, stay, stay"

[Chorus]

"I'll give you one more time

We'll give you one more fight

Said one more line

Will I know you?"

[Verse 2]

Now if you never shoot, you'll never know

And if you never eat, you'll never grow

You got a pretty kind of dirty face

And when she's leaving your home, she's begging you to stay, stay

Stay, stay, stay

[Chorus]

"I'll give you one more time

We'll give you one more fight

Said one more line

There'll be a riot 'cause I know you

[Bridge]

Well, now that you've got your gun

It's much harder now the police have come

And I'll shoot him if it's what you ask

But if you just take off your mask

You'd find out everything's gone wrong

[Outro]

Now everybody's dead

And they're driving past my old school

And he's got his gun, and he's got his suit on

And she says, "Babe, you look so cool

You look so cool

You look so cool

You look so cool (One more time)

You look so cool (One more fight)

You look so cool (One more line)"

('Cause I know you)
