For years I've worked this city Where the streets are cold and gray I've let some clean ones walk I've put some dirty ones away But nothing could prepare me for The case I caught today And if I have my way There will be nowhere to hide There will be nowhere to hide Once I've picked up on the scent On his capture I'll be Bent There will be no where to hide I had him in the house before Handcuffed to my desk If I'd only kept my temper It would have been a good arrest The arraignment was a circus
All eyes were fixed on me The bruises I had given him on his face Only served to set him free That judge was out of line I know he had it in for me My little indiscretions And my tainted history So now this guy will walk But I am going to make him see That if it's up to me If I have my way There will be nowhere to hide There will be nowhere to hide Once I've picked up on the scent On his capture I'll be Bent There will be nowhere to hide
