[Intro, congas, cowbell, wah guitar] (spoken, deadpan) Case file: number nine. Suspect: mine. [Verse 1, half-spoken, husky] Midnight in Roma, steamy rain, You slip the light, you slip the lane. I know the alibi by heart, You lie so well, it's almost art. Cigarette burning in the dark, I trace your steps, I leave my mark. Down the alley, through the back door, I've seen you slip through here before. [Pre-Chorus, building, backing vocals answer] Hands in your pockets, cool and slow, (cool and slow) Ten steps ahead, but I still know. (oh, she knows) [Chorus, chant hook, gang harmonies] Ti prendo, ti prendo, don't you run, (Ti prendo!) Ti prendo, ti prendo, we're not done. (We're not done!) Slip through my fingers, silk and smoke, Guilty, guilty, each word you spoke. (Guilty!) Ti prendo, ti prendo, don't you run, (Ti prendo!) Ti prendo, ti prendo, we're not done. (Ah-ha!) [Verse 2, half-spoken, sultry] You kiss the glass, you leave no prints, I read your lies between the hints. Red lights flicker across your skin, Guilty as sin, I'm falling in. Silver handcuffs, so cold and sweet, One dance, and I'll admit defeat. Every alibi's a lie, (a lie, a lie) But you look good when you defy [Pre-Chorus] Hands in your pockets, cool and slow, (cool and slow) Ten steps ahead, but I still know. (oh, she knows) [Chorus, doubled vocals] Ti prendo, ti prendo, don't you run, (Ti prendo!) Ti prendo, ti prendo, we're not done. (We're not done!) Slip through my fingers, silk and smoke, Guilty, guilty, each word you spoke. (Guilty!) Ti prendo, ti prendo, don't you run, (Ti prendo!) Ti prendo, ti prendo, we're not done. (Ah-ha!) [Percussion-only Breakdown: congas, cowbell, claps, group shouts] (spoken, whispered, then building) Uno! I know your name. Due! I know your game. Tre! You'll come to me. Quattro! Wait and see. [Final Chorus, full band returns, gang vocals, key lift] Ti prendo, ti prendo, don't you run, (Ti prendo!) Ti prendo, ti prendo, we're not done. (We're not done!) Slip through my fingers, silk and smoke, Guilty, guilty, each word you spoke. (Guilty!) Ti prendo, ti prendo, don't you run, (Ti prendo!) Ti prendo, ti prendo, we're not done. (Ah-ha!) [Outro, fading, spoken] Case closed... tomorrow.
