I should have mentioned the song title - "Thick as thieves" - it has a sort of double meaning. It means people who are closely allied/very close friends. It makes me think of a sort of clique mentality in religious groups. But "thick" can also mean stupid or dense and "thieves" are obviously people who steal from others.

I really like this interpretation.
