1] Was an ordinary day, sky was very gray Then I got a call from Mary, worried, told me hurry, "On my away" Was my response, didn't wait for her to even try and Into her explanation, walked up she was crying in her Sitting on the porch steps, all her on the lawn I'm Nancy Drew Dick Tracy, got a nasty crew, spit crazy Rhythm that's cinematic like Scorsese Either or hate me but I do it for the babies and She was without a doubt mad at than bout her house me to look around, more evictions than you could try to count Every on the block in a cataclysmic event Read the notice from the locusts, my battle intense It read, "Your street needs to be moved to be to make it safe" In other words, they've been displaced and Put me on the case, a eye, no time to waste I'm or die My motto, "Nowhere to run, nowhere to out Tell the truth, or the world will out"
x2 I'm the drunken sleuth, on the hunt for truth Make the evidence ever clear, as a hundred A hundred
2] I'm hot on the trail, binoculars betrayal intended to put the lot up for sale The block in to stop the shoplifting Now the thickens, shocked thinking about what I got in email The notes from a conglomerate Who planned to take the city over, someone their top secret document It read, "Dear We have to shut the soup kitchens down cause they and feed the poor And then went on to the homeless undesirable And planned to take the benches out the park so could keep it pure Also to create security patrols the goal is to jail and police them more A year one of the patrol men started beatin' On an old man who was sleepin' on the and almost killed him Got off 'cause his cost a quarter million, but he got to run, nowhere to hide out Tell the truth, or the world find out

3] Marchin' the city street named after Martin, a Swisher Sweet in Michigan we had a Detroit WikiLeaks Then it clicked like a Bic I need an insider for governor Snyder Got us living in a state of emergency, financial Watch it motion like time-lapses on cameras The is Dave Bing, thinks the city's his plaything Acts a fool to this capital like it's Beijing over people but the people are the prophets Never getting heard by the that's in office Get to the bottom of it like bottles of booze Tracing the and follow the clues 'Cause the was given by the foundation funding grants They don't believe me, they just think I'm on one of my drunken rants It's a prequel to a grab but you can't have Got nowhere to run, nowhere to out Tell the or the world will find out
