She came , as in the book, mickey spillane
That saturday night dark masquerade
Had filled his friend with lead, the same, sweetheart
But then, as nothing happens quite the same
Investigation is the game
He had to check her story right away-he dead
Sam spade his buddy archer first to go he got it
She spelt it out, how could they know the fatman got it -he dead
Her sister didnt really live at all-confusion-he dead
His chase led to the fatman, to face the friends of mr. cairo

Woman: hey, theres a really terrific dress shop. can we stop this raid while i buy a new gown?
Frankie: ill buy you the whole factory, sweetheart. dont worry.
That night, the double crosser got it right
Pretending he was really dim
He slipped to sam a double gin (mickey finn)
He woke, the boys had gone, but not his gun
Theyd left a note to lead him on
The chase to find the maltese falcon-you bet-
Early thirties gangster movies
Set to spellbind population
From chicago to hong kong
Via istanbul the talking tong
Dirty rats thru prohibition
Money flowed thru gangsterism
Acting out this fantasy
In hollywoods vicinity
The best part for the best rendition
Al capone he sent to prison
Citizen kane came fast and quickly
Conquering ol new york city
Poking fun at superstition
Media became television give me cagney anyday
Or jimmy stewart for president
Or edward g and all those guys
Who always shoot between the eyes
Between the eyes
Between the eyes

Kasper: ha, ha, well done mr. cairo, and what do you have to say about that, my friend ?
Spade: allright. so youve got me in it. what about her?
Brigid: dont worry about me, im okay
Kasper: very magnanimous, sir, very magnanimous indeed, ha, ha, ha
Mr. cairo: you mean..., you wontmake us an offer we... we cant refuse...
Father love do you work, do you work for mother
Chances could call, and accept that, be no other
Science as it might, disappear correspond with colour
Chance is the fruit, will outlive, what is now the brother
Call for total wealth to distribute like a picture
In black and white, give it joy, give it, let it hit you
Spoil our existence by extreme gift to population
Father love do you work, do you work for mother
Tell me straight be the godfather be no other
Media kings give us now give us total movie
Straight right now, give it clear, give us total movie
Now being here, being now, being here believing

Man: i dont know which words to put in there sweetheart, you know, i cant do it. pretty kind of useless, though, dont you think so mary?
Man: come with me to the far lands of baghdad.
Woman: oh, if only i could . thats what i want more than anything in the world, but it could never be...
Man: of course it can...
Woman: but my father would find us wherever we went. yes, he has forbidden me to... to even speak to you, if he finds me now. i dont know what hed do...
Man: but he doesnt know that im... im a prince. before, i was the thief of baghdad now...
Woman: it doesnt matter...
Man: then follow me, darling, follow me now to the ends of the earth
One on one to talk to you
Like film stars they get close to you
Youve mirrored his appeal
He wants you so, he wants to be besideyou
Then you pass by giving him the other side of you
Like the mystics do
So that every time he moves, he moves for you
Soul and light can always see
The meeting of true love and she
This silent night and i,
I guess a lonely mind might see
Ive seen love on the screen
Ive seen a screen goddesss and me-oh
How often this, how often, this the power of you
And so, i must confess
Whatever i see
Im meant to be there with you
With you with you
Silent golden movies, talkies , technicolour, long ago
My younger ways stand clearer, clearer than my footprints
Stardom greats ive followed closely closer than the nearest heartbeat
Longer that expected-ther were great-
Oh love oh love just to see them
Acting on the silver screen, oh my
Clark gable, fairbanks, maureen osullivan
Fantasy would fill my life and i
Love fantasy so much
Did you see in the morning light
I really talked, yes i did, to gods early dawning light
And i was privileged to be as i am to this day
To be with you. to be with you
[Movie actor like speech:]
Mr. cairo: listen. i have arranged this display for... for all of you people to... to come here this evening and i... i know you have been searched, but, what you... you dont realize is, is that in the back of the maltese falcon, i have it ...
