Straight-jacket holdin' me tight
The crowd stare cuts through the night
Break free with both hands tied
(spoken) How did I do it?
chorus:
Mystery man with his Appleton roots
He comes with a plan in his stranglehold boots
A slick lock-picker with a trick up his sleeve
that no-one can believe
verse 2:
Cool smile; I tour the town
The crowd cheers and fear it drowns
The whole world will know my name
(spoken) I am Houdini!
chorus:
Mystery man with his Appleton roots
He comes with a plan in his stranglehold boots
A slick lock-picker with a trick up his sleeve
that no-one can believe, oh yeah!
that no-one can believe, don't ya know!
that no-one can believe!
