When I was released from prison just over five years ago

I dug up the loot and purchased a house in Looe

Nobody knew of my past which was useful

As I had an aggressive budgie which I named

Surf Nazi’s Shaft America/Michael For Short

This bird had an even more chequered history than me

As it planned an took part in mercenary operations

In East Africa and a couple of Central American countries

It certainly put my Bank Robber as a Super Hero into the shade

I knew that the cops were on my tail which did not bother me

As in my spare time I masqueraded as a Manx cat once removed

I changed my name from Robert Smith to Roberto Smith

As I knew that this would confuse the cops at their station

In Fray Bentos Avenue in Uruguay Under Lyme
