Actually you could sing Phil Coulter's "Steal away" more or less as it is, and give it a wholly new meaning by dedicating it to these thieves:

Steal away, let's steal away
No reason left to stay
For me and you
Let's start a-new
And darling steal away

Steal away and chase that dream
And hope they never find us
The dreary days
The empty nights
We'll leave them all behind us

We'll leave behind the city streets
The gloom and desolation
The rain the cold
Just growing old
God knows it's a hard old station

We'll leave with just a memory
And make a new beginning
We have to choose
To win or lose
And it's time we started winning
