Duke the Thief
Oh, Dragaunus, has such claws, yeah
And he bears them, all gnarled
Just a saber has Duke the thief, Babe
And he stays well out of sight
When the Duke strikes, he gives the cops grief, babe
A rookie might leave a hint
Dark cloth gloves though, wears Duke the Thief, babe
So there's never, never a finger print
Now, on the sidewalk, Around midnight, A flash of movement, quick and brief,
And someone's sneakin' 'round the corner
Could that someone be Duke the Thief?
There's something on the museum roof don't you know
And a shadow figure that's sneaking on down
It hides in the shadows and waits out the wait, yeah
Five will get you ten ol' Duke is back in town
Now, did you hear about the big jewel theft?
Rocks disappeared, babe, and the rocks were worth
Some serious cash
And our thief made sure no traces were left
Could it be our Duke's done something rash?
Now Dragaunus, Wraith, Siege, Chameleon,
Ohh, Those Saurian Slimes are a goin' down
Oh, the line forms on the right, babe
Now that Duke here's back in town
I said Dragaunus, Wraith, Whoa Siege, Chameleon
Look out 'cause you Saurian Slimes are a goin' down
Yes, That Line forms on the right, babe
Now that Duke Here's back in town
Look out ol' L'Orange is back!
