Me The Master Thief By Richard Maxfield 9-14-2000 Stealth in quicken steps In the dark of night Sneak up on the place In shadows from the light Camouflage my face Cover my body heat Trying to appear as One more soul on the street Did I bring all my tools To Jimmie the lock at hand Can I sneak through the alarm To execute my precious plane If I’m caught There will be no hope for me I’ll be locked out with the others No one will ever see I know I’m close My heart is beating fast I can taste the treasure Feel the pleasure at last I know it can’t be bought I tried my best to earn So I went to dark school These tactics I have learned If I can slip pasted the guard I’ll be home free Just the other side of this wall I know it awaits me Me the master thief I really need the pleasure A piece of what I want My most cherished treasure A place in your heart |

Sorry but a "Master Theif" I don't think. First off, you had to go to school to learn what to do in the dark? It is outside the school you learn this. When they taught you to jimmie the lock, they didn't mean for you to go ask Jimmie to go with you. Heck Jimmie just left with your gal!! Next time leave Jimmie at home and for goodness sakes leave off that awful makeup you call camouflage. |
