We kept seeing car around First of all we saw it Burger King on Byres Road Badly parked, about five away from the kerb And at the craziest angle, as if stopped there in a hurry
my brother saw it outside the place Where the swimming pool and the badminton are And later again I saw it parked the off-license Closer to the pavement this time, and too
We ever saw the car parked But it always seemed to be somewhere I liked to go And then, when we out for dinner on wee Karn's birthday And we hanging our coats up on the coat-rack
We saw old mac already hanging there In amongst all the expensive fur and leather and I had a quick look while we were being taken to our table To see if he was there, but I couldn't see him
But then one While I was outside on the steps my Gameboy I heard a car stopping on the in front of me
And while I tried to Which way 'round to put the L-shaped Tetras That was falling, I felt someone sit on the steps beside me And I heard scratching their head And then, on the on the screen, I saw that it was him
"Those really are the most fascinating machines", he said But I'd built up a whole high pile, which a single line For down the side, and I look up in case it came
"It certainly is nice around here", said And I heard his mac as he looked around The single line I'd waiting for didn't come though And soon my screen was all the way to the top
So I put it down and asked If someone from around here had been "Not murdered, sir, no", he said, "I don't think you call it murder" "Well, what are you investigating?", I him
"Well, sir, it's a case of notes Perhaps call it theft, but I'm not rightly sure It's new for me, tell you that" Then he picked up the Gameboy and stared at it, all
"Could I? you mind?", he said And I him how to start up a game But pretty the screen was full and he shook his head "Well, well", he
"You know, Mrs. Columbo, she's great at sorts of things But me, I just seem to get the hang of them" And he up and handed it back to me "I'm sorry to troubled you, sir", he said
"I'll let you get to your game You know, this really is a area" And as he walked off down the I watched until he the door of his car And I went to start up game
But he stopped, "Oh, I'm sorry", he said Holding one hand up in the air, with a cigar his fingers And looking at the ground, "Just a little thing", he said And he the back of his head With the hand that had up in the air
"With something like that, sir, that little machine you there Would someone be to make samples with that From and stuff?", I laughed and shook my head "That's fine, sir", he said, "I was curious" Then he got into the car and away
I didn't think I'd see him again that, but I was very wrong I began to see his car around a lot Quite often outside the houses of I knew And not only that, but lately he's started turning up Wherever I be
Asking me all kinds of crazy technology and sampling and stuff Pretending he's trying to learn all it It got me quite for a while, but I think I'll be alright I think I've got him foxed, I think I've way too clever for him
