Opportunity

Opportunity

Came to my door

When I was down

On my luck

In the shape

Of an old friend

With a plan

Guaranteed

Showed me the papers

As he walked me to the car

His shoes

Finest leather

He said

You could wear this style

Follow my advice

He owned a gun

The calibre escaped me

But I noticed

Straight away

It made me itch

Carried an address

With numbers on the back

And an L-shaped

Bar of iron

What's that for

I asked my man

With eyes

Wide opened

And the knowledge in my head

And he said

Opportunity

World wide adventure

Money in the bank

We did the job

The work was so well done

No one saw us coming

Much less leave

But what I dropped

Carried my credentials

And a black and white

Shot of you and me

What's that for

I asked the cop

With eyes of innocence

The knowledge in my head

And he said

Opportunity

World wide adventure

Let me have your hand
