The Lyrics
Forgot another: "39 Steps"
They ran pell-mell off through
The Scottish clime.
He swore it wasn’t he who slew
And caused dyin’
Of chick who’s spyin’.
So he and Madeleine
Are chased by the hounds.
She is quite mad at him
’cause they’re handcuffed and being chased down
And running pell-mell through
The Scottish clime. . .
not fine.
He must do
This: get through
This doo-doo,
Rendezvous in a town
With a man there
Who knows secrecy
But gets shot down,
Greased by the
Head of the hellish crew:
The 39.
The Scottish clime.
He swore it wasn’t he who slew
And caused dyin’
Of chick who’s spyin’.
So he and Madeleine
Are chased by the hounds.
She is quite mad at him
’cause they’re handcuffed and being chased down
And running pell-mell through
The Scottish clime. . .
not fine.
He must do
This: get through
This doo-doo,
Rendezvous in a town
With a man there
Who knows secrecy
But gets shot down,
Greased by the
Head of the hellish crew:
The 39.
