Screamin’ Sally Davies
.
They came from every area, to work
in District Two,
Project DEEP, the codename, of the
troubleshooting crew.
Foot beats they were walking, on call-out
double-time,
The mission they accepted, of minimizing
crime.
.
Sally Davies and her partner, the
more senior Brad Picard,
Were walking down on Hastings, both
working really hard.
They were checking out a dealer, and
each one had a hope,
When they searched this person, they
could find his stash of dope.
.
The dealer had another thought, as
he broke into a run,
Papa Seven One, Code Four! and so
began the fun.
That was the last clear words we heard,
from the now pursuing pair,
Screams and heavy breathing, it was
Sally on the air.
.
He is racking on the fracking, and
now fripping on the frot,
I was certain, that was what she said,
as they continued on the trot.
Fleeple, fricking dorfer, was they
next sound that we heard,
Sally screaming louder now, she had
to spread the word.
.
On camber steetsel goan doon, he mate
faturn to south,
Was the next bit of the broadcast,
we heard from Sally’s mouth.
Be thunder camber steetsel, lee bought
lim on deround,
Then a pause, and nothing said, she
did not make a sound.
.
Then with a gasp, and huff puff, she
told us all quite clear,
Three Hundred Cambie, all is well,
no cover needed here.
It seems she caught her drug dealer,
at the entrance of the alley,
I win the challenge that she made,
that nothing rhymes with Sally.
