|
Sing news with passion of the pistol |
|
Sing news of the warning by the whistle |
|
A night so dark in the waning |
|
A dawn obscured by slight sky raining |
|
Five and twenty burglars by the reservoir |
|
A teenage lookout on the signal tower |
|
The Moguls daughter in hard time |
|
The mogul fingers a one guy, one guy |
|
It was the perfect, the perfect, the perfect, the perfect |
|
The perfect, the perfect, the perfect, perfect crime |
|
It was the perfect, the perfect, the perfect, the perfect |
|
The perfect, the perfect, the perfect, the perfect crime |
|
It was the perfect crime |
|
The bagman's quaking at the fingers |
|
The hand-off glance a little lingers |
|
A well-dressed man in the cross hairs |
|
A shot ring's out from somewhere upstairs |
|
It was the perfect, the perfect, the perfect, the perfect |
|
The perfect, the perfect, the perfect, the perfect crime |
|
It was the perfect, the perfect, the perfect, the perfect |
|
The perfect, the perfect, the perfect, it's the perfect crime |
|
It was the perfect crime |
|
It was like a ticker-tape parade |
|
When the plastic unsafe was blown away |
|
And we all gaze from eye to eye |
|
As we mouth our silent goodbyes |
|
The valley's sleeping like a bastard |
|
It stinks of slumber and disaster |
|
Two words are spoken with tap wire |
|
The agent's pull finds a surefire backfire |
|
It was the perfect, the perfect, the perfect, the perfect |
|
The perfect, the perfect, the perfect, perfect crime |
|
It was the perfect, the perfect, the perfect, the perfect |
|
The perfect, the perfect, the perfect, the perfect crime |
|
It was the perfect, the perfect, the perfect, the perfect |
|
The perfect, the perfect, the perfect, the perfect |
|
The perfect, the perfect, the perfect, the perfect |
|
Perfect, the perfect, the perfect, the perfect |
|
The perfect, the perfect, the perfect, the perfect |
|
The perfect, the perfect, the perfect, the perfect |
|
The perfect, perfect, perfect, perfect |
|
Perfect, perfect, perfect, the perfect crime |
