I don't know Some kind of satisfaction

Fame, maybe?

Well, he's got our attention

He keeps pushing, raising the stakes,

upping the ante

He's probably contemplating

something daring next

Something big

The airport

The foreign exchange windows

Morning flight arrivals

A thousand foreigners,

exchanging dollars, pounds, marks

- The airport, really? That's a stretch

- Maybe

But I got a feeling about this bugger

A very strong feeling

- Take a team, Cor Stake it out

- Okay

to use it Give me all your money

as long as it takes

I'll keep that in mind

As a friend, hey,

put your hands behind your back, please?
