There was this burglar 
With a master plan, 
Conceived long ago.  

To steal a precious Pearl, 
Kept under lock in a gilded box,
By a powerful man.  

He stole the pearl, 
And ran away,
But soon everybody 
was looking for him, 

The Police, the F. B. I, 
Spies from the C. I. A. 
and even the President 
Of the U.S.A.  

The powerful man 
Offered a reward 
Of one million dollars.  

And the authorities issued
An interstate arrest warrant
Across this big Nation, 
Wanting him Dead or alive.  

A fugitive for quite some time, 
Finally got forced into
An Inescapable Position.  

Cornered in a dead-end Street
With no way out, 
But to jump from
a one-mile-high cataract
at the end of the road. 

He had no choice but to jump, 
And he fell and fell
until the water down below, 
hard as concrete, 
Stop his fall. 

"He almost broke his neck, 
But he didn't." 
And you know, when you are young 
Time heals everything.  

And when he was lying there Wounded,
The pearl slipped out of his pocket,  
And this one was transformed into A Fairy, 
With a nacre shell colored Gown, 

And seeing him there, 
She took him in her arms,  
And disappearing into thin air, 
...Nobody saw them again.
