The jig's up
Some mug stuck
A gun in your ribs
The hotel
The Bombshell
The chloroform kiss
The things you
confess to
When gumshoes
Arrest you
Dutch Courage
Is a friend of mine
A tight squeeze
The DT's
Your back to the wall
A tip-off
To ship off
A clandestine call
One step
Ahead of
The thug in
The black gloves
Dutch Courage
Is a friend of mine
Looks like someone smashed the door
Cut up the couch and turned out all the drawers
Burnt-out flashbulbs on the floor
Haven't I been here before?
There are those
Who don't know
The deck has been stacked
You learn when
Your good friend
Stabs you in the back
Face down in
The river
A shiv in
The liver
Dutch Courage
Was a friend of mine
