Look here comes Houdini
Handcuffed, blind and bound
Here comes a girl now
Slips a key into his mouth

He says I?ve been under the water
I?ve been under the ground
And honey one thing?s certain
There?s no escaping now
'cause it?s a long way down
It?s a long way down from here

Look here comes Houdini
Triumphant after all
But where?s the girl now
Did she not survive the fall

She says I?ve been under the water
I?ve been under the ground
And honey one thing?s certain
I?ll never take that bow
'cause it?s a long way down
It?s a long way down from here
