Battery Man

He walked right into the coal mine
And he made sure you got the money
Obeyed your words
You did nothing

But you stayed back at your place
You pulled out the remote
Pressed the green button
A GPS showed the way
The battery man had smile on his face

He out played the danger
You let your wife get the better
Then there was confusion
A knock in the door
A rifle and a stranger

The next you heard
A silent siren of the ambulance
A guy blowing in your mouth
A coldness running through your head
You had soar hand with frozen blood

You woke up some days later
Grabbed a news paper
It was 4 days before
Then you knew you were robbed
You let your wife get the better
