You stole miles of concrete intervening street
Wrapped it up and waited for the ground to sink
Waited with a proper drink

Attack the lights, roll initiative

Snuck it into the basement
Stuck it onto the wall with a pushpin

Break for the hall, otherwise you're caught on TV
Maps and blueprints crushed beneath the tires of a police car

Start the engine
Start the camera
Keep the camera on the car
Keep the guerney in the basement
Hide the money in the jar
Hide the liferaft in the backseat
Start the rescue
Start the war
Win the hearts of everybody
Keep the secret
Keep the score

since the day you walked into my office
i have been obsessed with your muscular body
i have not been able to sleep for days
waiting for the right time to jump your bones
i am still formulating a plan for us
please don't think i'm weird
just because i keep blueprints for the bank
in my ninja suit with gear to pick the lock
and bags to bring the swag home

i'll be long gone
when you wake up
leaving no trace
only a note
giving directions
to the treasure
just don't spend it all
on plastic surgery
i have to find you
in 20 years
keep yourself away
from the IRS
keep an eye out
for the signal
we will have it all
and be invincible

but since you took all my shit and ran
i have no mercy on your thieving neurotic ass
therefore i will have to notify the cops
that you have victimized grandma x
small town folk will come down with a vengeance
when you put it that way
pass the time until i come for you
maybe i will have come to my senses by then
and let you off
come to daddy's arms

i'll be long gone
when you wake up
leaving no trace
only a note
giving directions
to the treasure
just don't spend it all
on plastic surgery
i have to find you
in 20 years
keep yourself away
from the IRS
keep an eye out
for the signal
we will have it all
and be invincible
