Lyrics
Champagne Fake name Number on a napkin Check please Room key More coke for the captain Lipstick on the filter Sign out on the door Seven hours til turndown services On the second floor Knock knock Ten o’clock Housekeeping with breakfast Awe shock Coffee hot Airborne in the French press Facedown on the bedspread Color nearly half dead Still recognizable as a Regular guest Missing wallet Missing watch Something in his tumbler probably stronger than the double scotch Dizzy talk with Busy cops But no mention in the paperwork of the stash cost, the cash losses No prints Only hint Blonde wig in the bathtub APB on radio, state patrol on the back up Nothing on the register No plates on the rental car Needle in the hay, girl like a shadow in the dark But nine miles away In the bathroom at a Texaco Color contact lenses, freehand freckles, money in the pantyhose Ten minutes from SFO Cop at the counter with a photo of a brown-eyed girl in different clothes Cash fare Ride share Taxi to the airport Gate 5 On time Baggage just a Jansport Business class so rum and cola Guiltless sleep til Mexico then On the beach like any other rich resorter’s doctor’s orders No talking business Room service Evening paper and a mai tai English version Color picture, two-inch headline: Jane Doe versus Kingpin Drama at a local hotel Suspect in the wind Drug money missing as much as half a million Likely inside job—just too much intel for civilians bills in A backpack Untrackable all cash Flight risk highly likely Solo female on the lam Back at the residence Bedtime for the Kingpin kids Mommy on the tuck-in shift Lights out now goodnight kisses White lie for little princes: Daddy on a business trip Then frantic phone calls to the lawyers: asset shelters, audit risks No talking business No call No show Nanny girl still MIA Slow drawl Plain clothes But never ever out a day Mommy at the changing station Weak knees with the revelation Teddy on the top shelf: stuffing out decapitation Lens in its belly gone Day and night always ON Disemboweled nanny cam Now nanny with the upperhand Unforced error Silly Daddy such a fool Barely there but still this fumbling with the household golden rule No talking business No talking business In the baby’s room No talking business No talking business In the baby’s room
