Barney Beppotoozoleema
was the ever-constant schemer
to his next job in his Beemer
he cruised into the state
Barney's buddy Pops Petasky
was his strong arm, rather nasty
Drinking from a leather flask he
Pondered the day's date
B.B. had a mark in play
The con job would be done today
he'd meet his sap at Sounder's Bay
just up from Golden Gate
Down in Texas Barney sold
the San Francisco bridge for gold
told a schmoe that he'd soon hold
the deed, so don't be late
Dexter Dimbulb soon was given
the Golden Gate for which he'd driven
up from the South where he'd been livin'
in the Lonestar State
Barney got the gold from Dex
while Pops looked tough and pumped his 'pecs'
Dimbulb grinned and asked, "What's next?"
and then he met his fate
Pops grabbed Dexter by the throat
threw him in a motorboat
went out to sea to see him float
with sixty pounds of weight
Dexter sank without a fit
Pops picked up his bullion split
Barney thought 'bout goin' legit
but too many cons await
