The Bagman's Gambit - The Decemberists (十二月党)[00:00:00]

On the lam from the law[00:00:11]

On the steps of the capitol[00:00:16]

You shot a plainclothes cop on the ten o'clock[00:00:20]

And I saw momentarily[00:00:32]

They flashed a photograph it couldn't be you[00:00:36]

You'd been abused so horribly[00:00:46]

But you were there in some anonymous room[00:00:51]

And I recall that fall[00:01:04]

I was working for the government[00:01:09]

And in a bathroom stall off the National Mall[00:01:14]

How we kissed so sweetly[00:01:25]

How could I refuse a favor or two[00:01:29]

For a tryst in the greenery[00:01:40]

I gave you documents and microfilm too[00:01:44]

And from my ten floor tenement[00:01:59]

Where once our bodies lay[00:02:02]

How I long to hear you say[00:02:06]

No they'll never catch me now[00:02:14]

No they'll never catch me[00:02:22]

No they cannot catch me now[00:02:26]

We will escape somehow somehow[00:02:32]

It was late one night[00:02:55]

I was awoken by the telephone[00:02:59]

I heard a strangled cry on the end of the line[00:03:04]

Purloined in Petrograd[00:03:15]

They were suspicious of where your loyalties lay[00:03:20]

So I paid off a bureaucrat[00:03:29]

To convince your captors there to secret you away[00:03:34]

And at the gate of the embassy[00:03:48]

Our hands met through the bars[00:03:54]

As your whisper stilled my heart[00:03:57]

No they'll never catch me now[00:04:03]

No they'll never catch me[00:04:12]

No they cannot catch me now[00:04:15]

We will escape somehow somehow[00:04:21]
