|
I pack my bags |
|
Yeah |
|
I call a cab |
|
Yeah |
|
I call Nigel |
|
then I start to laugh |
|
Oh |
|
How would I know |
|
Oh |
|
Michigan is just as cold |
|
The plane took off |
|
A car drove |
|
And there I was |
|
I had a new plan |
|
Yeah |
|
One that would spare my key |
|
And save her life so I could tell her |
|
How my dear did we get here? |
|
Stinging clear like my breath oh my breath oh my |
|
Riddled in tears and shaking with fear |
|
I'm stuck to this death for the rest of this mess of my life |
|
So I pulled into the Hilton in Detroit |
|
I checked into room 4-2-0 |
|
I ordered the sirloin au chateau |
|
I phoned Nigel, the locksmith, my hero |
|
Now I-I-I told him what I want |
|
And he gave me a solution |
|
"Now my main man you need a camera" |
|
"With some super tight resolution like" |
|
"How my friend will this said end" |
|
"Bring you so clear, so clear, so clear goddamn" |
|
"Pretend it's done and don't give a f**k" |
|
"Or you're stuck to this death for the rest of this mess of your life" |
|
I can't believe my luck |
|
The only person I could trust |
|
I call the Four Seasons in Toronto |
|
The only place my girl would stay |
|
The concierge was rather pleasant |
|
When I called her by her first name |
|
I ask her if she knows my girl |
|
She seemed so excited to say: |
|
"She's in room eight eleven," |
|
"So where would you like to stay?" |
|
I say well "I don't know" |
|
"I'd love to surprise her if it's apropos?" |
|
"Whatcha got on the ninth floor?" |
|
"Room nine eleven would be the most," |
|
"Well sir it's your lucky day" |
|
"The room's open if you'd like to stay" |
|
"Yes please, I appreciate |
|
"Your discretion and your manners, Kate" |
|
My flight lands at two nineteen |
|
A short-hand hails a cab for me |
|
I tell the driver to head to mall |
|
So I can get some shopping done |
|
I tell the cabbie that I won't be long there |
|
He agrees and keeps the meter on |
|
I get a camera and twelve feet of rope there |
|
Then we're off to the hotel |
|
I check into nine eleven |
|
Make a date with the mini bar |
|
I wait up till 5 in the morning |
|
When I know she's asleep for sure |
|
I tie the rope to my balcony |
|
Descend to her balcony |
|
I pick the lock on the sliding glass door |
|
I creep in and fall to the floor |
|
I know she can't sleep with that key |
|
So she leaves it out obviously |
|
Right there for me to see |
|
I take a picture then I start to think |
|
How my dear did we get here? |
|
Stinging clear like my breath oh my breath oh my |
|
Riddled in tears and shaking with fear |
|
I'm stuck to this death for the rest of this mess of my life |
|
I can't believe my luck |
|
The only person I could trust |
