lyrics

Narrator sings:
It's 1am, October 10th, 2195 down here on Earth.
200 floors above a street in New Orleans, a trilby falls in the frozen, turbulent night.
It's owner clings to a penthouse railing, raw panic floods his flailing limbs.
He seeks a desperate redemption from the silhouette kicking debris off the edge.

Vincent sings:
“Tell me what you know.”

Owner sings:
“Please don't let me go!”

Vincent:
“Tell me what you know.”

Owner:
“I'm begging don't let me go, I'll tell you everything I know. I'll tell you who stole your money: Miller McKee.”

Vincent:
“Alright, now we’re talking. Where is he?”

Owner:
“At the Demoines place! Let me up Vincent!”

Vincent:
“See ya.”

Vincent kicks the owner’s hand and the owner screams in free fall.
The theme music continues.

We then hear a casino and jazz music in the background. Vincent is dialling a number.

Miller's voice answering phone:
“Yeah?”

Vincent, creepily:
“There you are Miller. See, big science man? I knew we'd find you in the end. Ain’t so smart now.”

Miller, brightly:
“Ahh Vincent, how happy I am to hear from you, you total psychopath.”

Vincent:
“You won't be happy too long. That money you took from the boss? We know it was you. He wants you back here, you ain't finished making predictions for him.”

Miller:
“Right, well I have a new prediction you can tell him. I predict that you're going to be in a lot of trouble Vincent.”

Vincent:
“Oh yeah? How's that? I'm scanning your Communicator's location right now, keep talking.”

Miller, interrupting:
“Yeah, the thing is, this is a recorded message. If you called and are listening to this, you followed the long trail of fake breadcrumbs I left and you are now at a very, very dead end.”

Vincent:
“Miller?!”

Miller, interrupting:
“Now I’m no psychic Vincent. Just read the signs. Today is a good day for me and a bad day for you. Please leave a message after the tone - byeeee.”

Vincent hangs up.
