Did I See a Ninja
I could have sworn I saw a ninja from my boat
who moved stealthily through the night.
Thank goodness he wasn't after me.
He was in just the right amount of light
At window height
When I saw him flee.
I could have sworn I saw a ninja from my boat
Who moved stealthily through the night.
I was out of sight
There was no way I was going to come up an
Absentee.
He was in just the right amount of light
I wasn't going to stop and ask him his plight.
I really didn't want to have to turn my self into
The police for a third degree.
I could have sworn I saw a ninja from my boat
Who moved stealthily through the night.
I watched his flight.
Things happen and the next thing you know the
Thing you didn't see has some how made you
A nominee who is now a presentee.
He was in just the right amount of light
And the time was around midnight.
You want to hear something funny?
It wasn't a ninja at all it was the dock
Master checking the last of the boats in the
Storm making sure their lines were secure so
There would be no catastrophes.
I could of sworn I saw a ninja who moved
Stealthily through the night
He was in just the right amount of light.
