I'm coming in

Try to stop me

Push furniture in front of the door

It only gives me something to push against
                                
In the full heat of the summer's day
                        
You're telling me to go away
                                 
But you owe me eight thousand dollars
             
And I could use it


I'm only getting stronger

You may have noticed

But a head full of memories propels me ever forward
                                 
And in the living room I don't see where you are
                                 
But the back door's open so you can't have gone far
                                
And eight thousand dollars is a whole lotta money
            
And I could use it


Could be that it's my imagination

But I think I hear you now

So come out come out wherever you are

Ollie ollie ollie ollie ollie oxen-freeeee
                                 
See I'm perfectly aware of where our love stands
                                    
But the plain fact is that you owe me eight grand

If it helps to jog your memory
                        
I lent it to you one Tuesday when we were drinking

Ha, Ha-Ha-Ha-Ha, A-ha
