Gadzooks, Batman, It's the G-String Gang! Holy Underwear! -- LONDON (Reuters) - Cheeky thieves, dubbed the "G-string Gang" by the British press, made off with thousands of pounds worth of racy underwear after a daylight raid on upmarket lingerie designer Agent Provocateur, a spokesman said on Tuesday. The central London headquarters of Agent Provocateur, a favorite among celebrities such as Kate Moss and Liz Hurley, was burgled over the weekend by thieves who carried off 27,000 pounds ($40,000) worth of lacy bras, knickers and corsets as well as shoes and jewelry. "We were all working upstairs when it appears the thieves broke down the front door and managed to steal the collections from the basement," said Agent Provocateur founder Joe Corre. But the thieves, who got away with the fashion house's new collection, had not made an intelligent choice in targeting such an exclusive boutique, he said. "The very nature of the designs, being so distinctive, renders them instantly recognizable, making it easier to track the thieves down, whatever they try to do with the collection." Agent Provocateur is known for its sexy, slinky and expensive designs which include one-off corsets, suspenders, stockings and G-strings. A spokesman for London's Metropolitan Police said the burglary was being investigated but there was no description of the suspects.

Try On This Underwear by Deda
(Tune: Take Off Your Thirsty Boots, by Eric Anderson)

The girls are wearing boxer shorts
Or boring cotton briefs
From L.L. Bean or other dorks
They've only brought you grief
But the plain white bras, and boxer shorts
Will soon be hid in shame
Once they've put on the lace and silk
It won't come off again

CHORUS:
So try on this underwear
And let's see you strut
The diamond-studded wonderbra
Makes you look a high-price slut
And maybe I can sell you one
And maybe I can try
I'm just looking for a bustier
Or a teddy in your size.

I know you're not a model on
The fashion mogul's trail
But even you can bill and coo
And wag a little tail
Try this Givenchy garter belt
And Lauren's fishnet hose
They're bargain basement, priced to sell
From London's finest shows.

(Chorus)

Lace teddies and Stiletto heels
With a little french perfume
Will change the way men look at you
When you walk in a room --
Just do not get too curious
Why it's selling for a song
It's genuine, I swear, although
The label tags are gone.

Chorus
