I saw the message you scratched on the wall
I got the picture
I reached those fellas you told me to call
It seems they’d like to be richer
I filled manila envelop with cash I did not contact the police
So please don’t panic
I’ve done nothing rash
I know you’re in there
Guess I should mention that I will be a working alone this time
Got my Saturday night special loaded baby
And it’s working fine
Girl shed no doubt, I’m gonna get you out
It’s just a matter of time, I know you’re in there
I know you’re in there, I know you’re in there
I know you’re in there
I know you’re in there, I know you’re in there
I know you’re in there
I took advantage of their criminal naiveté as I just waited
Until they picked up the ransom in full, that I had electronically baited
I followed them to apartment high rise, up nineteen floors
I was goin’
You should have seen their communal surprise
When I kicked their hide out door in
Bang bang I shot it and first the fat guy got it
As he dove to the floor
Those other villains were less than willin’ baby
To give up the show
Pow pow I knocked those cats out
And tied them to a living room chair
Quick as I got off the phone with homicide
I made it through the back and down the stairs
I found you mumblin' and cold and tired and lonely and scared
There’s no need to fear, I’m right here
I know you’re in there
