Stone Cold
.

A B&E in progress, and maybe with a rape,

The suspect last seen running, making his escape.

Get a dog car down there, and put him on the trail,

Maybe he can get a bite, of the running male.
.

Ray Tetzel and his partner, police dog name of Bo,

Responded on the radio, and said that they would go.

The suspect quickly located, right nearby a school,

Our heroes would soon have him, he really was a fool.
.

He stood there in the schoolyard, as still as any stone,

Possibly he's dangerous, don't take him down alone.

Watching for his actions, Ray had to get a feel,

How come he isn't moving? He must have nerves of steel.
.

Waiting for his cover, which was now within a block,

The suspect stood there waiting, as solid as a rock.

Cover in position, it was time to take him down,

Soon to be in custody, one stone headed evil clown.
.

Ray jumped out gun drawn, and told the guy to freeze,

He did not move a muscle, when ordered to his knees.

Standing like a statue, he stared right back at Ray,

Nothing more was left to do, nothing more to say.
.

They moved in to arrest him, still he did not flinch,

Closer they approached him, he did not budge an inch.

The problem was apparent, as he came into their view,

Stone cold a good description, they arrested a statue.
