I just threw this together so I hope it is alright. The place I am You do not know For if you did You would say so So sit right down Let’s play a game And I will put You all to shame I could be near I could be far I’ll go by train Or plane or car Just a short time You have to look To try and find The thing I took So start your search Get on the case And go to where The crime took place You call me evil You call me vile I really don’t care That’s just my style Now away I go To plan a heist And steal a thing That’s highly priced So if you think You can find me Come have a seat And we will see But first things first Just for my mirth Find my henchmen To prove your worth Do you know me?
