| The biltmore garage wants a grand, but we aint got a grand on hand.
|
| And they now got a lock on the door to the gym at public school 84.
|
| Theres a stock room behind mckloskys bar, but mrs. |
| mcklosky aint a good scout.
|
| And things being how they are, the back of the police station is out!
|
| So the biltmore garage is the spot, but the one thousand bucks we aint got.
